Revelation makes God known

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

If God comes, everybody, therefore, can say:

1.God is everywhere, and near me,

2.I ,therefore, can call God into my heart,

3.If God is with me, Satan, therefore, cannot have a place in me; because, God and Satan cannot live in one place together. 

4.If Satan is not in me, it means that my relationship with      Satan and Hell has ended.

 This means; I am saved
