The God of the bible is a God of Revelation!
The Collins dictionary defines revelation as: “the act of making known a truth which was previously secret.”
Two Reasons Why God Reveals Himself to Mankind
- God is our creator and we are His creatures. Without God’s revealing of Himself to us, we cannot comprehend the truth about Him, or know what He is like. God desires us to love Him, but we are not capable if we don’t know Him.
- Sin (rebellion against God), cuts us off from God and His truth. In our fallen sinful state we are spiritually blind. This condition affects our whole way of thinking about God.
