Mystery

So much of God is a mystery in the Scriptures. There are so many questions not answered. Rather, the Scriptures focus on the experience of humanity, of actions done justly or unjustly, in love or not in love, acting for God’s glory or being idolatrous. Is it right for us to spend much time in seeking the nuances of God’s being when, perhaps, we should instead be focused on doing right and offering glory?

“What is God like? What kind of God is He? How may we expect Him to act toward us?... To our questions God has provided answers, not all the answers, certainly, but enough to satisfy our intellects and ravish our hearts.” –Tozer
