1 John 3:20 Says Simply "He Knows Everything." ...
Contributed by Sermon Central on Jun 18, 2007 (message contributor)
1 John 3:20 says simply "He knows everything." Does that describe you? Do you know everything? I’ve known people that thought they did.
ILLUS - It’s kind of like the little boy that asked his mom, he said "momma, how come the idiots only come out when daddy’s driving."
And the answer is because daddy thinks he knows it all and everybody else is an idiot. I’ve known people like that. I’ve been people like that. And some people really do think they know it all. They think it all centers around them.
ILLUS - It’s like the woodpecker that was pecking away at a tree. Suddenly lighting hit the tree and split it right in half. The woodpecker flew off saying, “Look what I did”
Or the true Survey – Guys were asked to rate themselves in intellectual ability. Here’s the thing, 90% of guys rate themselves in the top 50%, and roughly 40% put themselves in the top 5% of all guys when it comes to intelligence. We really do think we know it all.
But you know what, there’s only one person that really does know it all, one person that it all does center around, and that’s God. God knows everything.
