How deep have we probed into the character of God?

And the years of eternity, as they roll, will bring richer and still more glorious revelations of God and of Christ. As knowledge is progressive, so will love, reverence, and happiness increase. The more men learn of God, the greater will be their admiration of His character. As Jesus opens before them the riches of redemption and the amazing achievements in the great controversy with Satan, the hearts of the ransomed thrill with more fervent devotion, and with more rapturous joy they sweep the harps of gold; and ten thousand times ten thousand and thousands of thousands of voices unite to swell the mighty chorus of praise. (Chap. 42, The Great Controversy, Ellen White)


It has been an amazing journey for me since the latter half of 2006 when I started to see a clearer image of God's character; with my old views rebutted and shattered, and learning to see God with new eyes, I have been experiencing more and more love of God.

Sometimes, it seems with my foundational image of Yahweh changed, I am so close to the full image of God; and immediately I'd exclaim, how naive am I!

Naive, because even Paul did not claim a complete image of God.

Mathematics is a deep deep science to me, with all the numbers, you can study maths and be rest assured there are always new laws to be discovered; but even more so is God's character. The character of God is our eternal pursuit, and this love between God and us will only deepen through the endless time.
