I love when God asks questions in the Bible. I love that humor and irony that lies in each question that The All-Knowing One asks.
I think a lot of Christians are scared of questions. Some feel threatend by them. Others feel like questions show a lack of faith. Others equate questions to sinful rebellion. But I believe that healthy questions lead to knowledge. How can we have a faith that is truly ours if we don't discover it on our own?
So anyway, I know that God does not ask questions because He has a lack of knowledge. I thinks He asks questions to get us asking and thinking. So here is the question:
"Am I only a God nearby," declares the Lord, "and not a God far away? Can anyone hide in secret places so that I cannot see him?" declares the Lord. "Do not I fill heaven and earth?" declares the Lord.
Rhetorical...yet thought provoking. Ask questions.
