Omniscience
“Thou God seest me.” Genesis 16:13
Suggested Further Reading: Psalm 94:4-11
It were hard to suppose a God who could not see his own creatures; it were difficult in the extreme to imagine a divinity who could not behold the actions of the works of his hands.
The word which the Greeks applied to God implied that he was a God who could see.
They called him Theos; and they derived that word, if I read rightly, from the root theisthai, to see, because they regarded God as being the all-seeing one, whose eye took in the whole universe at a glance, and whose knowledge extended far beyond that of mortals.
God Almighty, from his very essence and nature, must be an Omniscient God.
Strike out the thought that he sees me, and you extinguish Deity by a single stroke.
There would be no God if that God had no eyes, for a blind God is not God at all.
We could not conceive such a one.
Stupid as idolaters may be, it is very hard to think that even they had fashioned a blind god: even they have given eyes to their gods, though they see not.
Juggernaut, or Jagannatha (a god worshipped in some areas of Hinduism), has eyes stained with blood; and the gods of the ancient Romans had eyes, and some of them were called far-seeing gods.
Even the heathen can scarce conceive of a god that has no eyes to see, and certainly we are not so mad as to imagine for a single second that there can be a Deity without the knowledge of everything that is done by man beneath the sun.
I say it is as impossible to conceive of a God who did not observe everything, as to conceive of a round square.
When we say, “Thou God,” we do, in fact, comprise in the word “God” the idea of a God who sees everything, “Thou God seest me.”
For meditation:
The proofs of Jesus’ deity in Mark 2:5-8:
He could see faith, forgive sins and perceive the thoughts of the heart. He still can!
