14 I am the good shepherd, and I know My own, and My own know Me,
15 just as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.
John 10:14-15
Unless God is revealed to us through personal experience, we can never really know God. Most of us know about God, but that is quite different from knowing God. We learn about God through the agencies of the church, the Sunday school, the youth activities, the worship services. Many people stop in their quest for God at this point. It is one thing to be introduced to a person, but quite another thing to know him personally.
