Spurgeon’s Heart-Knowledge of God: The Necessity of This Knowledge (III of V)

Why is it necessary for man to have a heart-knowledge of God? Spurgeon writes, “The knowledge of God is at once the beginning and the end of wisdom.” In other words, without a right relationship with God, what is perceived as truth becomes distorted. In knowing God, however, all matters of life are placed into their rightful order and perspective. When considering the necessity of knowing God, there are two key points addressed by Spurgeon. First, this knowledge is necessary for all other true knowledge, and second, this knowledge is necessary for man to have a spiritual life. It is in knowing God that we can distinguish truth from error and discover the One through whom any meaningful spiritual life may be found.
