How God Is Known

It is not by creation man knows God. Man seeks to know God by creation, but he does not thus know Him; nor does he find Him out by His providential dealings up to Moses’ time, nor by His revelations from Sinai, for man could not come near Him: if but a beast touched the mountain, it was to be stoned, or thrust through with a dart. God dwelt in thick darkness, which no man could approach unto.
It is neither by creation, nor by providence, nor by law, that man knows God, but by the One who came down, walked this earth as a man, and revealed the heart of God towards man, and then who died for man, and has gone up again to the glory above—the Lamb of God.
