Do I really know God?

who is god

Jesus cried out in the temple area as he was teaching and said,
“You know me and also know where I am from.
Yet I did not come on my own,
but the one who sent me, whom you do not know, is true.
I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”  John &:25n

Who is God? what are the 3 words you have in mind when you think about him? 

Father? Savior? Redeemer? King? Judge?

or  Mighty? Amazing? Scary?

Jesus folks didn’t get who is God. this is why he says to them these harsh words:  You don’t know the one who sent me! You don’t know God!

God doesn’t want to be known for us as a picture on the wall, or  just from the book, this is not full knowledge. He desired to be know as a Person. Somebody who cares, who Is present. Who loves!

Our Heads are full of wrong ideas a bout God. These Ideas quite well isolate us from Him. We become afraid, scared, not trusting. We try to hide, etc…

John in his Gospel gets to the point: God is Love.  everything that is contradicted to this is not true!
