We need to ask ourselves: …What do I intend to do with my knowledge about God, once I have it? …If we pursue theological knowledge for its own sake, it is bound to go bad on us. It will make us proud and conceited…. There can be no spiritual health without doctrinal knowledge; but it is equally true that there can be no spiritual health with it, if it is sought for the wrong purpose and valued by the wrong standard.
–J. I. Packer
Knowledge about God is a good and helpful thing. God has revealed Himself to us so that we can know about Him. However, if we are not using that knowledge to help us become more holy and more like Jesus, then we are using it in the wrong way. Many ungodly men have much knowledge of the Bible. Satan himself, the most ungodly being in all of creation, knows so very much about the Bible.
Knowing the Bible and knowing about God does not help us if we do not know God and have a relationship with Him. I pray that God will help me use the knowledge I have about Him to lead me into a deeper relationship with Him. Also, I hope that I will not allow the knowledge I have about God to increase my pride nor make me conceited. Rather I hope that the knowledge I have about His holiness and love for me in my sinfulness will lead me into greater humility and love for Him and others.
