"If we claim to be without sin, we
deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is
faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all
unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar
and His word is not in us." (1 John 1:8-10 NIV)
God is none other than the Savior of our
wretchedness. So we can only know God
well by knowing our iniquities… Those who have known God without knowing their
wretchedness have not glorified Him, but have glorified themselves.
-- Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)
