KNOW THE LORD!

Maybe you have heard or read it also that “Know thyself” was written on the Apollo temple in Delphi. Does that not sound like humanism to you also? It sounds like humanism to me.

In fact not too long ago I talked to a man, who claims to be a humanist. He was very eager to declare, that he does not believe in God.

At the present time I have come to the prophetic books – Isaiah to Malachi – of the Bible in my daily Bible Reading and I am coming across the sentence “Then they will know that I am the Lord” again and again. Sometimes it says also “Then they will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.” Ezekiel 29:9,16,21 for example.

KNOW THE LORD!

A couple of days ago we listened to some records in our home and in one hymn they were repeating again and again this sentence: “The greatest thing in all my life is knowing you! What a message.

In fact I think it is the greatest message for all of us: KNOW THE LORD!

Do you know the Lord?
