THE INCOMPREHENSIBLE GOD
Ex. 20:21. "And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was."
Deut. 4:11. "And you came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness."
Deut. 5:22. "These words the Lord spoke unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more."
1 Kin. 8:12. "Then spoke Solomon, The Lord said that he would dwell in the thick darkness."
Job 11:7. "Can you by searching find out God? Can you find out the Almighty unto perfection? It is as high as heaven; what can you do? Deeper than hell (the grave); what can you know? 9. The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
Job 15:8. "Have you heard the secret of God?"
(TELLING US THAT MANY THINGS ARE BEYOND THE HUMAN MIND TO COMPREHEND ALL THAT IS GOD. DEUT. 29:29 - "THE SECRET THINGS BELONG UNTO THE LORD OUR GOD: BUT THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE REVEALED BELONG UNTO US AND TO OUR CHILDREN FOR EVER...." THERE IS MUCH IN THE WORD OF GOD THAT EXPLAINS ABOUT GOD; AND THIS WE CAN KNOW - Keith Hunt)
Job 37:5. "God thunders marvellously with the voice; great things does he, which we cannot comprehend. 22. ....with God is terrible majesty. 23. Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty in justice."
Psa. 18:11. "He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies."
Psa. 97:2. "Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne."
Eccl. 3:11. "No man can find out the work that God makes from the beginning to the end."
(SOME THINGS ARE BEYOND HUMANS TO FIND OUT ABOUT GOD AND ALL HIS WORKS - EACH YEAR WE DISCOVER MORE ABOUT THE UNIVERSE, THE DEPTHS OF THE SEA, AND ALL THAT THEREIN IS. EACH YEAR WE LEARN MORE ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY, BUT WE HUMANS SHALL NEVER KNOW ALL THINGS ABOUT GOD AND HIS WORKS WHILE WE ARE IN THE FRESH - Keith Hunt)
Isa. 40:12. "WHO HAS MEASURED THE WATERS IN THE HOLLOW OF HIS HAND, AND METED OUT HEAVEN WITH A SPAN, AND COMPREHENDED THE DUST OF THE EARTH IN A MEASURE, AND WEIGHED THE MOUNTAINS IN SCALES, AND THE HILLS IN A BALANCE? 13. WHO HAS DIRECTED THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD, OR BEING HIS COUNSELLOR HAS TUAHGT HIM? 14. WITH WHOM TOOK HE COUNSEL, AND WHO INSTRUCTED HIM, AND TAUGHT HIM IN THE PATH OF JUDGMENT, AND TAUGHT HIM KNOWLEDGE, AND SHOWED TO HIM THE WAY OF UNDERSTANDING? 15. BEHOLD, THE NATIONS ARE AS A DROP OF A BUCKET, AND ARE COUNTED AS SMALL DUST OF THE BALANCE: BEHOLD, HE TAKES UP THE ISLES AS A VERY LITTLE THING. 16. AND LEBANON IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO BURN, NOR THE BEASTS THEREOF SUFFICIENT FOR A BURNT OFFERING. 17. ALL NATIONS BEFORE HIM ARE AS NOTHING; AND THEY ARE COUNTED TO HIM LESS THAN NOTHING, AND VANITY. 18. TO WHOM THEN WILL YOU LIKEN GOD? OR WHAT LIKENESS WILL YOU COMPARE UNTO HIM? 21. HAVE YOU NOT KNOWN? HAVE YOU NOT HEARD? HAS IT NOT BEEN TOLD YOU FROM THE BEGINNING? HAVE YOU NOT UNDERSTOOD FROM THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH? 22. IT IS HE THAT SITS UPON THE CIRCLE OF THE EARTH, AND THE INHABITANTS THEREOF ARE AS GRASSHOPPERS; AND STRETCHES OUT THE HEAVENS AS A CURTAIN, AND SPREADS THEM OUT AS A TENT TO DWELL IN. 23. THAT BRINGS PRINCES TO NOTHING; HE MAKES THE JUDGES OF THE EARTH AS VANITY. 24. YES, THEY SHALL NOT BE PLANTED; YES, THEY SHALL NOT BE SOWN: YES, THEIR STOCK SHALL NOT TAKE ROOT IN THE EARTH: AND HE SHALL ALSO BLOW UPON THEM, AND THEY SHALL WITHER, AND THE WHIRLWIND SHALL TAKE THEM AWAY AS STUBBLE. 25. TO WHOM THEN WILL YOU LIKEN ME, OR SHALL I BE EQUAL, SAYS THE HOLY ONE? 26. LIFT UP YOUR EYES ON HIGH, AND BEHOLD, WHO HAS CREATED THESE THINGS, THAT BRINGS OUT THEIR HOST BY NUMBER: HE CALLS THEM ALL BY NAMES BY THE GREATNESS OF HIS MIGHT, FOR THAT HE IS STRONG IN POWER ; NOT ONE FAILS. 27. WHY DO YOU SAY O JACOB, AND SPEAK O ISRAEL, MY WAY IS HID FROM THE LORD, AND MY JUDGMENT IS PASSED OVER FROM MY GOD? 28. HAVE YOU NOT KNOWN? HAVE YOU NOT HEARD? THE EVERLASTING GOD, THE LORD, THE CREATOR OF THE ENDS OF THE EARTH, FAINTS NOT, NEITHER IS WEARY, THERE IS NO SEARCHING OF HIS UNDERSTANDING. 29. HE GIVES POWER TO THE FAINT: AND TO THEM THAT HAVE NO MIGHT HE INCREASES WITH STRENGTH. 30. EVEN THE YOUTHS SHALL FAINT AND BE WEARY, AND THE YOUNG MEN SHALL UTTERLY FALL. 31. BUT THEY THAT WAIT UPON THE LORD SHALL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH; THEY SHALL MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES; THEY SHALL RUN AND NOT BE WEARY; AND THEY SHALL WALK AND NOT FAINT."

(I HAVE TRIED ALL MY LIFE, FROM AN EARLY TEEN, TO LIVE WITHIN THE LAWS OF HEALTH THAT GOD HAS LAID DOWN, AND THAT MAN HAS FOUND TO BE THE BEST HEALTHY WAY TO LIVE. MOST OF IT ALL IS EITHER ON THIS WEBSITE OR IN MY BLOGS. WE DO HAVE TO DO OUR PART IN KEEPING HEALTHY. I AM A YOUNG 70 YEAR OLD, AS I ENTER THIS, GOD HAS GIVEN ME STRENGTH AND I CAN STILL DO SOME THINGS LIKE I WAS 50 YEARS OLD OR EVEN YOUNGER. I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH GOOD HEALTH ALL MY LIFE. I WAS INSPIRED AND ENCOURAGED TO BE HEALTHY BY MY PHYSICAL FATHER, WHO IS STILL ALIVE AS I WRITE THIS, AT AGE 92. I PRAY THE LORD THAT I WILL LIVE AS LONG AS MY DAD, IF THIS AGE DOES NOT COME TO AN END IN THE NEXT 22 YEARS. THE BOTTOM LINE IS NOT THE LENGTH IN YEARS THAT WE MAY LIVE, BUT IT IS HAVING GOOD STRENGTH, RISING UP WITH WINGS AS AN EAGLE, FOR AS LONG AS WE DO LIVE. I PRAISE THE LORD THAT I DO HAVE GOOD STRENGTH FROM HIM - Keith Hunt)
Isa. 55:8. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the Lord. 9. For as the heavens are higher than the year, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."
1 Cor. 2:16. "For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him?"
....................
THE THINGS THAT GOD HAS REVEALED TO US ARE FOR FINDING OUT. MUCH IS REVEALED TO US IN THE WORD OF GOD - MUCH ABOUT GOD IS REVEALED TO US - BUT WHILE IN THE FLESH WE CAN ONLY FIND OUT WHAT GOD HAS CHOSEN TO REVEAL TO US ABOUT HIMSELF. THERE IS LOTS, INDEED LOTS, THAT WE SHALL YET LEARN ABOUT GOD WHEN WE ARE IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
