The Reformed Doctrine of Knowing What Time It Is

Thus says the LORD: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the LORD.

Jeremiah 9:23–24

So knowing God is the ultimate thing. This knowledge is relational and doctrinal. We have to know what God is like in order to walk with him. How can two go together lest they agree? Knowing God means trusting him to be who he is and do what he loves to do. And what’s that? Well, he’s the Almighty who loves to take care of his people in a crazy world.

Let’s trust him to be him today so that we can enjoy being his beloved children now.
