1 Corinthians13:9
9 For we know in part , and we prophesie in part .
It was truly said, as to things humane, That the greatest part of those things that we know, is the least part of those things which we are ignorant of. A great measure of Divine things is also unknown to us, and the knowledge of them reserved for the Resurrection and Day of Judgment, Ioh. 14.20.
Nor can the communication of our knowledge to that, be larger than what we by Prophecy communicate, we having our selves but a short and imperfect communication of Divine things, we can communicate but an imperfect degree of knowledge to others.
