Knowing God (part 2 )

In the post part One of " Knowing God" I set about the idea that knowing God was possible, and even easy.

However, there is more to be said of this that needs to be clarified. When I say knowing , I mean that we can connect with God in a real way and get to know God as one gets to know anybody in a relationship. We learn to relate with God, and learn of who God is. We will never know the fullness of God. In fact we never really know all there is about any person we are in relationship with. I love the idea of a "divine romance" to define this relationship with God.

Here are a few thoughts to support what I am saying:

*God is bigger than any idea of who God is....whether that be a religion, creed, sacred book, or theology.

*God cannot be defined, many of the ideas we have of God are only a starting place, and sometimes we outgrow these concepts or they become obsolete. (however, let's never judge those who still hold to them, as less than us. For we are all one and share in this journey.

*God does not change but Our understandings do, so a person's faith or religion that is not flexible is fallible.
