Why is suggesting God is beyond our thinking an escape?
Don't you think there's something a bit contradictory when the Bible claims to be God's Word... His instructions to mankind ...while simultaneously declaring that God is beyond all understanding?

If He's beyond all understanding, why bother to instruct us. And if He feels compelled to instruct us, why not make himself understood?

If its so blatantly obvious then why is religion especially the various evangelical faiths spreading daily.
Except that Islam is actually the world's fastest growing religion, so where does the Bible fit in to that equation?

It's like I keep saying... human beings are hardwired for religious belief, and apparently Christianity offers a form many people like. It's what they can understand, and when they can't understand it, the religion simply declares, "Don't worry, no one can understand God, so don't worry about those troubling little things you can't understand".

That's
something people can understand.
