Lailah Gifty AkitaWithout the knowledge of God , we perish.
About This Quote
The quote, “Without the knowledge of God, we perish.” is a verse from Ecclesiastes. In this book of the Bible, the author, King Solomon, is telling us that we need to know God in order to survive. Life without this knowledge of God is not worth living. Through our actions, we must make sure that we are living the kind of life that God wants us to live. Abraham Lincoln expressed this idea well when he said: “I am not afraid to die; I have lived long enough to know how to die.”
