The Wisdom of God

       Chapter 11 is on the wisdom of God. One thing that stuck out to me this chapter is when Tozer says, "Indeed I wonder whether God could make us understand all that happened there at the cross (62)." This sticks out to me because many times I wonder if God could do things without personally coming and interacting with us. One of the main questions I wrestle with is could God have paid for our sins without sending his son to die? This statement that Tozer seems to be in a similar vein of my question, so it was a connection point for me. Also, Tozer says that he is thankful that God did many of his mighty deeds in secret, away from man and angels. This is an interesting concept that I have never really thought about before. It makes sense however, because God is the ultimate perfect being, and revealing his plans to creatures who are sinful, and who do not understand him perfectly could lead them into confusion, and we would probably not even be able to comprehend God's mighty works
