Basic Bible Studies for new Christians
Knowing God
As human beings, our deepest need is to know God our creator. Knowing
God isn’t the same as just knowing about God. There are people
with a great deal of theological and Scriptural knowledge who do not
have a relationship with God. The Devil knows a great many facts about
God and about the Bible. Knowing God is “knowing” in the
sense of knowing—and getting to know—a person.
Originally, mankind knew God
Genesis
1:27-31
• Made in God’s image
• God speaks to man and woman
• God blesses man and woman
Sinful man refuses to know God
Romans
1:18-21
• Some things about God are plain from creation
• Man rejects what he knows and worships the creation rather than the
creator
How we came to know God
John
1:10-12
• The world did not recognise him
• Those who believed became children of God
Knowing God: our ultimate goal
Philippians
3:7-11
• All the other (possibly good things) are mere rubbish compared with
knowing Christ.
