REVELATION MAKES YAHWEH KNOWN 3

Revelation makes God known

I.Can someone call himself the messenger of a non-revealing god?

   God revealed Himself to Moses and talked to him (Ex.25:9);
         The Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend (Ex.33:11; Num.12:8)

    God did not reveal Himself to Muhammad and did not talked to him personally

    Who, Moses or Muhammad, knows God personally and is able to speak about the glory of God?

           Having God, listening and talking to Him, and knowing Him personally affect all dimensions of our life and provides us with reasons to talk about Him

Can someone proclaim God without knowing Him?

Can someone know God without the revelation of God?

       Knowing God is not only to know facts about God but to    know Him personally as one person can know another in trust and in love

Revelation makes God known

God is the source of truth. Only through the revelation of God are we able to know God and have the truth (Jn.1:14).

What human authority can establish the truth on earth if God, who is expected to be the supreme authority in theology, is not revealed?

To give purpose to life, God’s constant presence and supervision are necessary

REVELATION OF YAHWEH - KEY 1

Revelation of God: a key to personal witnessing

God’s aim in creation is to put Himself on display

*The heaven declares the glory of God (Ps.19:1)

*The Bible is the written word of God, but Jesus is the personal word of YAHWEH 

It is essential to have confidence in this, that God reveals Himself through the Bible, through Christ, and through His Spirit.

REVELATION OF YAHWEH - MAKES PERFECT SENSE

Revelation of God makes perfect sense

YAHWEH is the Creator, the author of life,

1.He gave Adam and Eve life through His personal touch.

2.Could God create, touch and talk without revealing Himself?

The God of the Bible is the personal, relational and active God. He is the God with image:

1.The glory of God will be revealed, and all mankind will see it (Isa.40:5) 

2.I will go before you and will level the mountains (Isa.45:2
