Facebook is a good thing. It makes staying connected with each other easy. It lets us brag about things we do and then post for all to see.
One downside about Facebook is it creates another category of relationships for us. Having Facebook friends is not the same thing as having real friends. Many times, you don’t even really know your Facebook friends. You know some info about them and you can make some general statements about them by the things they say and the pictures they post.
But do you really know them?
The same can be said about God. We can learn a lot about Him through His creation. We can even make some general statements about what He is probably like. But to actually know Him, we have to dig deeper than what He has revealed generally through His creation.
Thankfully He has done more than post some pictures and leave us guessing. God has given us His actual words and left us without an excuse. Not only can we learn about Him personally, He also reveals our purpose.
The Bible, God’s special revelation, His telling of His story, has given us all we need to know about Him.
