Have you ever had questions about the Christian faith? I certainly do.
"Why does a holy God allow sin to happen?"
"Why did God choose such a painful, roundabout way to secure our redemption through Jesus?"
"How can God be "one in three persons"?"
"What will the new heaven and earth be like?"
... and more, which is why I love Deuteronomy 29:29.
The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
There are things about our faith that God keeps secret from us. But He has revealed enough to us, in His word, for us to have faith in Him. The things that He has revealed are ample for us to obey and follow Him. Nothing that we cannot ascertain from His word is crucial to us coming to faith in Jesus Christ and loving God. When we're full of questions, this is a great thing to remember.
