Christ Emptied Himself Page 87The complex Person of Jesus Christ can be known by grace,
but He cannot be fully known. God the Father hides things
from the wise and prudent. The wise and
prudent are not those who are truly wise and truly prudent,but those who are wise and prudent in their own eyes.
Such persons are blind proud covetous and prejudiced. Their problem is something that no preacher cancure. If the sovereign God does not give sight and change theirproud hearts they will never know Jesus Christ. Wise men ofthe world by their wisdom know not God.
