Revelation of God -- Outside reading
“In the revelation of God there is still mystery” --- Heidegger
“In the revelation of God there is still mystery” --- Heidegger
It is astounding how God can
be known yet unknown. Heidegger expands
this reality by addressing the sky. We know it is there up above us, but where
does it begin and what does it contain? It is known and recognized yet
unsearchable and infinite. Heidegger
then draws a very interesting point, saying that the sky and Divinity share a
connection. God is revealed in the sky.
The psalmist, David, seems
to agree:
Psalm 19:1-2
“The heavens declare the
glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day they pour
forth speech; night after night they display knowledge”
What would Heidegger say
about in the revelation of God there is mystery yet greater
understanding of the self?
