Job 11:7

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Job 11:7. Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection!

What wonderful questions these are! How they ought to convict those who glibly talk of God as if they could measure him with a foot rule, and understood exactly what he ought to do and ought to be. We are constantly meeting with statements that such-and-such a thing, which is revealed in Scripture, cannot be true, because it is inconsistent with the modern idea of the benevolence of God. Our only answer to the cavillet is, "Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?"
