God Can Be Known Only By Faith In His Revelation

It is not possible for the creature to know the creator, except what the creator revealed to the creature. Thus it is not possible to know God, except what He had revealed to us. Whatever He revealed, we have to accept it by faith.

The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law. (Deuteronomy 29:29 ESV)
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. (Psalm 19:1 ESV)
It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out. (Proverbs 25:2 ESV)
Truly, you are a God who hides himself, O God of Israel, the Savior. (Isaiah 45:15 ESV)
Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son. (Hebrews 1:1-2 NLT)
