A Good Point

Joi was watching Nightline Face-Off the other night. The question was, "Does Satan exist?" This question was covered by:

Deepak Chopra, an Indian philosopher
Carlton Pearson, a bishop of something
Mark Driscoll, Mars Hill pastor
Annie Lobert, former prostitute

In the debate/discussion, Deepak Chopra, made what I believe was the most profound statement of the event. He said that when we define God, that we have placed a limitations on Him. I don't believe he has any idea what he was really saying, but it is a truth. We define God under this doctrine or that theology, but all of our definitions are limited to our understanding. The truth is we can't comprehend God in His fullness. We always put God in a box, we just have different size boxes.
