It Is Impossible To Be A True

Just Supposing For The Sake Of The Argument That There Is A Being Of Such A Kind As That He May With Any Propriety Be Called "god", It Does Seem Antecedently Very Improbable That Weak And Limited Creatures Of A Day, Such As We Are, Should Discover Him By Our Own Efforts.... Who Could Be Discovered In That Way Would Hardly Be Worth Discovering. I Think We Ought To Stick To That Principle Rather Firmly. I Think We Ought To Be Rather Sure That We Cannot Know God Unless God Has Been Pleased To Reveal Himself To Us.
