<transcy>Knowing god (Connaître Dieu) </transcy>
Presentation
Who is God? Can we know him? Should we make an effort to know him?
"Do not listen to those who say that there is no means of access to the knowledge of God, says the author to us, come with me a bit of the road ... to see .
Yet he does not encourage his readers to engage in a theoretical study of the doctrine of God. Our knowledge of God will decisively determine how we live.
We are on the wrong track if we try to live in the world without knowing who created it and who is its master. To neglect the study of God is to condemn yourself to walk in life stumbling, groping, blindfolded, without being able to orient yourself. This is how you can waste your life and lose your soul.
Author
The author defends and reaffirms many great biblical themes ... he illuminates every doctrine he deals with and presents it logically, and with courage, lucidity and warmth ... the truth he deals with ignites the heart. Anyway, it set mine on fire and made me slow down to worship God and pray.
John Stott
