Fred Malone on Knowing God

John 17:3 says, “This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.”

There is a big difference between knowing about God and knowing God. In the Bible, knowing God means two things. It means you have an accurate knowledge about God and that you have a personal relationship with Him built upon that accurate knowledge.

Sometimes we hear people say: “I like to think God is like this. I’ve always believed God is like that.” The Bible alone, however, is the only sufficient and accurate source of who God is, what He is like, and how to know Him personally. So, we all need to stop thinking and guessing about who God is and what He is like. We need to be reformed in our thinking about God by the Bible’s teaching about Him.

First, the Bible teaches that everyone knows that there is a God, even if they are an atheist or agnostic.

Second, the Bible teaches that the only way for sinners to know God personally is through the person, words, and work of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Third, to know God in a living relationship means that we must believe who He is and the truths He has revealed about Himself in the Bible alone.
