“The Enlightenment scientists who came after Descartes built upon his foundation with the newfound belief that everything is ultimately knowable by the all-powerful human mind. The universe was quantified into laws of physics, the celestial realm was figured out, and it no longer needed a God turning a crank to keep it moving.”

Later in the chapter Kara Powell says “It would indeed be terrifying to worship a God we could figure out. The enigmas, mysteries, and antinomies of God are what make him God. Without these, he would be just a very cool guy.”

Can you really imagine if we (Humans) were all knowing? If we knew everything that was going on everything that was goinhg to happen, if we had the answers to everything. Can you imagine where the world would be today? Can you imagine where we would be without a loving God?

“It would be terrifying to worship a God we could figure out.” To me it would be terrifying just understanding God, let alone having the full knowledge that he has, being all-knowing.

I can’t personally imagine where this world would be or what we would be doing without God, if everyone just insisted that we are all-knowing, we really don’t need God, forget the Bible forget what he has told us. I  know it all already. NO WAY.

God is all-knowing, Jesus is all-knowing, we as humans are not.
