Brandan RoberstonThe moment we begin to believe we have got something about God figured out with certainty is the moment we can be sure we are no longer speaking about God.
About This Quote
This is a quote from the Apostle John that is all about humility. He did not speak of a deity but a higher power. The power of a higher being, the power of God. As we talk about God, we are speaking about an idea or concept of what he might be like.
We do not know. That is why it says, "The moment we begin to believe we have got something about God figured out with certainty is the moment we can be sure we are no longer speaking about God."
