We Can Know God
Read John 1:1-3
Today’s Truth
Imagine someone new moves into your neighborhood. From a distance, you might immediately notice the car they drive, what hours they work, and whether or not they have children. You would know some things about them, but you wouldn’t know them. To know them, you’d have to be introduced. You’d have to speak to them.
We can know some things about God just by observing the world. We know that God is incredibly powerful and that He is not made of anything created. We can know that He is the Creator and that He holds all things together. We can know about God in this way, but we would really know God unless we met Him.
Discussion Questions
- How did you meet God?
- How does Jesus help us know God?
- What does your friendship with Jesus look like?
Application
Jesus, the Word of God, made it possible for us to truly know God. John 1:14 says, “The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood” (MSG). The invisible God has become knowable. We can meet God and interact with Him. God has moved toward us so that we might meet Him, know Him, and develop a friendship with Him.
