I’ve observed that more and more Christians and ministers are frantically trying to fit God into our culture to make Him acceptable with today’s society. It is nauseating to both watch and hear professing believers making apologies for who God is and for what He does. The result of this is the humanization of God. Whenever we put God on our level, we are no longer awed by His attributes. It seems these miniature, would-be, pseudo-theologians think they can explain everything about Jehovah. But by attempting this, they take away the marvelous mystery of the Divine. What they miss!
We are plainly told in Scripture that God has secret things that belong to Him and Him alone. But those things He has seen fit to reveal, belong to us, and we can pass them down to our children. If there was ever a man who knew God intimately, it was darling David. Yet, when he wrote concerning certain things pertaining to God, he said, “…neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.” He goes on to say in another place, “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.”
David was content with letting God be God; and so should we! If you don’t, you’ll lose the wonderful wonder of it all.
