"If there were no final, ultimate judgment day, then God's total knowledge of my life would not be so threatening. Or if He knew all things but were not all-powerful, I might be less intimated. Or even if He were omniscient and omnipotent but not altogether holy, I might have a chance to negotiate a few things. However, He is all of these things and unchangeably so."
