The Psalmist teaches God cursed all men allowing them to walk on the path of destruction. The creation is a picturesque display of Gods attributes and His superior performance.Language was adequately communicated to man to glorify God. Man was not capable of instantly comprehending all of Gods language. This is why God appropriately describes Himself and His works in baby talk. Because God instantly comprehends all things, He does not live in uncertainty. God is the only intelligent being who thinks, desires, and acts in prefect unison. We live in mystery because we are not all knowing, eternal or all-powerful. Our fundamental uncertainty proves that God limited our intellectual ability by limiting our familiar language. Since God can accurately explain all the intricate details from His eternal view then we who are limited in our language are completely dependent upon God. The key question is can we know enough to sufficiently know God and understand ourselves?
If God has described the continuous creation in all of the detail then He does not experience uncertainty. God is the only one who identifies Himself as He is. We vicariously experience problems that result from being finite, sinners and under the curse. We struggle to adequately describe complex reality like God. Our frustration with all opposition is experiencing uncertainty by our inability to comprehend the unclear reasons about ourselves and circumstances. To know God and ourselves like God knows, we must not have any limitations.Gods language is detailed enough to fittingly describe the logical reasons for all genuine reality. Since God created us to depend on Him, He had to communicate His will so that we could be suitably rewarded as our dependence grows.Since God is free of the control of all things then we cannot be free since we are limited in our knowledge and language.
If God made us to rule wisely over the earth but issued us limits under His control, how can we be successful in ruling? If God governs with unlimited power then how can He suitably reward us if our power is intentionally limited? God communicated an outline of His extensive language to allow us unlimited freedom as He is free. God has written down the outline so that we can identify our desires and express them. God revealed baby talk in the law, covenants, comprehensive statutes, curses, eternal decrees and promises. His dynamic language are pronouncements of the victorious king. God has provided us ability to quell the formidable opposition of sin, the curse and our own limits.
All reality is Gods application of His law. Without law nothing can be worthy or offensive. A lawless creation would be without personality. Since we cannot know as God knows subsequently we live with mystery. God describes mystery by administering the law. God fashioned us to be free like He is free.We fail to be law keepers because we imperfectly understand good as God is righteous. Has God assigned us with destructive limitations to force us to depend upon Him? If all things are organically related to each other by law then how can God be justified if we fail because we do not have comprehensive knowledge to be good as God? We must live with the established rule that God faithfully relates to us in absolute unity because He regales according to law of proper relationships. This is the legitimate reason that God must eliminate all opposition because He cannot deny Himself. He must unite His irresistible desires with our sincere desires for us to be free as He is free. This is why God organically relates to us by eternal pronouncements of law, covenants, curses, statutes, etc.
