Since I can read, I already know there are people here who will say this statement is not true. I am just curious to hear the reasons.
Our understanding of God, His will, ourselves, and the true condition of this present world cannot be formed by our experience, our reason, or even our interpretation of the Bible apart from Christ. We need a solid rock we can anchor ourselves to, and that Rock is Christ alone!
(And I am not talking about trying to cop out by pointing out that God and Christ are one. We all know Christ brought a totally different picture of the Father than was [and is] popularly accepted.)
