About This Book
A lifelong pursuit of knowing God should embody the Christian's
existence. According to eminent theologian J.I. Packer, however,
Christians have become enchanted by modern skepticism and have joined
the "gigantic conspiracy of misdirection" by failing to put first things
first. Knowing God aims to redirect our attention to the simple, deep
truth that to know God is to love His Word. What began as a number of
consecutive articles angled for "honest, no-nonsense readers who were
fed up with facile Christian verbiage" in 1973, Knowing God has become a
contemporary classic by creating "small studies out of great subjects."
Each chapter is so specific in focus (covering topics such as the
trinity, election, God's wrath, and God's sovereignty), that each
succeeding chapter's theology seems to rival the next, until one's mind
is so expanded that one's entire view of God has changed. Author
Elizabeth Eliot wrote that amid the lofty content Packer "puts the hay
where the sheep can reach it--plainly shows us ordinary folks what it
means to know God." Having rescued us from the individual hunches of our
ultra-tolerant theological age, Packer points the reader to the true
character of God with his theological competence and compassionate
heart. The lazy and faint-hearted should be warned about this timeless
work--God is magnified, the sinner is humbled, and the saint encouraged.
