|  God is therefore unknowable. This is the fundamental premise of the Bible. | | All there is to thinking is seeing something noticeable, which makes you see something you weren't noticing, which makes you see something that isn't even visible. | | If the highest things are unknowable, then the highest capacity or virtue of man cannot be theoretical wisdom. | | God's reasons for communicating with man must be subsumed under his reason for communicating to him his account of his creation of the world - and man. | | But the God of the Bible is not only One, but the only possible One. | | If God is One, and if there can be no other God, there can be no idea of God. | | I cannot know anything of which there is and can be only one. |
