Stay Away From Nonsense

Sharing Options

“Those who receive the limits on human reason set by Scripture know that this is not an argument for speaking nonsense, but rather an admonition to us so that migh learn when we need to shut up — so that we might avoid speaking nonsense. ‘Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain it’ (Ps. 139:6). Those who do not admit, as David did, that God’s knowledge of our actions is ‘too wonderful’ have begun to speak nonsense in the name of avoiding nonsense. As he approaches the blackboard to solve the great problem, a haughty June bug is likely to say some pretty silly things — and he can’t even hold the chalk” (“Foundations of Exhaustive Knowledge” in Bound Only Once, pp. 140-141).
