ROMANS 11:33-36
3.
KNOWLEDGE (OF GOD) Gnosis, This is not referring to what God knows here, but to what is known, or may be known about Him. It refers to the things revealed about Him, and His plans: Proverbs 2:1-11; Colossians 1:9-12; II Peter 3:18a. This is referring to what God has revealed unto us.
(Remember Deuteronomy 29:29) Yes, only as God reveals Himself may we know His mind, therefore: "how unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past tracing out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been His counselor? Or who hath first given to Him and it shall be recompensed unto Him again? For of Him, and through Him, and unto Him, are all things. To Him be the glory for ever, Amen" (Romans 11:33b-36).b. No, man cannot search out God, His judgments, His ways, without revelation from Him. We can see the movements of His great Creation, but we cannot trace out how He holds all things together and how all things consist within Him.
c. These great truths about the Creator have been known from the beginning:
Isaiah 40:21,22d. God needs not counselors as even great men do!
Isaiah 40:12-14e. God is in debt to no created being:
Job 41:11 Thus, His ways are good, safe, wise, and happy. We should be humbly obedient to God, because He makes no mistakes! Job found this out: Job 42:1-6 (Read the book of Job when you can, it is a great book to further understand the power and might of our Creator!)Our God Does 'all things well'
