Knowing Faith

Can We Actually Know God?


Listen Later

Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley dive into the doctrine of Revelation to discuss how we can know God.

Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • What are we currently working on?
  • How has God revealed Himself?
  • Is it possible to say true things about God? 
  • How do we speak truthfully about God?
  • What is Illumination?
  • Can we read the Bible just like we would read any other book?

Helpful Definitions:

  • Natural Revelation: A common knowledge of God that is given to all humanity.
  • Special Revelation: God has revealed himself to us in Christ and through Scripture.
  • Theophnustos (θεόπνευστος): God-breathed.
  • Illumination: The Holy Spirit who has inspired God’s word, turns the light on for us to rightly hear and receive what God has already testified to. 
  • Christological Analogy: The Bible is fully divine and fully human yet one text.

Resources Mentioned in this Episode:

  • Romans 1:20, Hebrews 1:1, Colossians 1:15, 2 Timothy 3:16, Psalm 36, Revelation 5
