Dialectical Theism - Knowing God

from Bridging the Ideal and the Real Hosted by J. Pittman McGehee, D.D.

How do we know a piece of art, a song or wisdom or even the taste of water? Can we even know that which we cannot comprehend? How would I know what you know. Pittman describes the two bookends of knowing God. One is the anthropomorphic God who hears, who walks and talks like a human being which is simplistic on one bookend and on the other bookend of the teeter totter of our life is a God of nothingness where silence is all we know if we are honest with ourselves. In this proposition of the dialectical theism is knowing something that is beyond our own comprehension but in between there are things we can say. This mp3 is a talk given by J. Pittman McGehee, D.D. on 11-15-87 at Christ Church Cathedral Sunday School class in Houston, Texas.
