Listen from:
In the Garden of Eden man fell, and to this hour, although by industry and research he acquires a certain knowledge of everything in creation, yet he cannot find out God. His greatest advancement only convinces him the more of his ignorance. Like the Athenians in Paul’s time, he must, if honest, confess his ignorance on the greatest point which could occupy any intelligent creature — the knowledge of his Creator. In comparison to this, what is any other knowledge? And what is the good of the knowledge of everything relating to man, if I am ignorant of God?
G. V. Wigram
