GATES OF GOD

In his folly, man will deny the very existence of God, a denial he bases upon his intellect.  Little does he realize how unstable, how unreliable his intellect actually is. 

For instance, despite accepting as true today what he will reject as false tomorrow, he still thinks that what appears to him as true today is the final truth. 

Intelligence is just another name for ignorance, to put it that way.  This is because the area that intelligence covers is limited; a person’s intellect can only provide him so much.  Therefore, if a person wants to attain all there is to know of God, and understand all His mysteries, he must approach Him entirely differently. 

Firstly, God cannot be an object of knowledge, per se.  God cannot be studied, observed, analyzed, as though He were a piece of furniture.  Simply, God is.  Approaching Him as such is the only means of realizing Him.
The good news is that for him who has gained God, nothing is hidden.  The gates of God are then open to him, to where he belongs to God, and God belongs to him.
