These are a few more quotes from  Knowing God by J.I Packer. 

   “The modern way with God is to set him at a distance.  

 

THE STUDY OF GOD

   Nothing will so enlarge the intellect... as a devout, earnest, continued investigation of the great subject of the Deity. 

   Disregard the study of God... sentence yourself... no sense of direction and no understanding of what surrounds you.  

   Our aim in studying the Godhead must be to know God Himself the better.   (We must) enlarge our acquaintance... with the living God.  

   Its effect is ever to humble us, as we contemplate God's greatness and glory, and our own littleness and sinfulness.

 

EFFECTS OF KNOWING GOD

   Those who really know God... never brood on might- have- beens; they never think of the things they have missed, only of what they have gained.  A little knowledge of God is worth more than a great deal of knowledge about Him. 

Qualities of Those Who Know God

 

KNOWING GOD

   Once you become aware that the main business that you are here for is to know God, most of life's problems fall into place.”
