They Don't KNOW God!

HEADLINE:

KJV Isaiah 45:15 Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.

KJV Matthew 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. 26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight. 27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

Isaiah 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

KJV Psalm 50:16 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth? 17 Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee. 18 When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers. 19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit. 20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son. 21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.

Because of failure to communicate clearly, we tend to be at loggerheads when it comes to understanding one another. There is an ORDER in our FAMILY and understanding that order promotes correct understanding of God and His purposes. God is in this order (1) Creator, (2) Father, (3) Teacher, (4) Judge. The first thing He did is conceive the idea of making a FAMILY and a Home for them. Then He created it. He made Himself a Wife from His own Spirit body and together they co-created the spirit children and formed the FAMILY where He alone is Father of all. He has to raise (teach) each child in the ways of conduct conducive to social order, peace, and joy in a super-huge number of children that man cannot count because of the size. In all matters of the FAMILY, Father doubles as arbiter and Judge where interests tend to conflict.

It is necessary for Father to "manifest Himself" to each child, otherwise that child will not "know Him". God must reveal Himself personally and directly, or the concept of God learned from others will be skewed and incorrect. The document in the link goes to some length discussing perception-conflicts and ideas that resolve them. God must not be "silent" to the children, because the ears of the children are designed to HEAR HIM when and if He decides to speak to them personally. Please READ the document and see if you won't come to a better understanding God's ORDER of things.
