“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
nor are your ways My ways, says the Lord.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are My ways higher than your ways,
and My thoughts (higher) than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9)
This should warn us “not to put God in a box”.
Who are we to say what God should think, feel, decide, do, say, etc.?
So, we should keep an open mind, and consider seriously
what God says in His Holy Scriptures! Don't forget ...
“All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16)
“No prophecy of Scripture ... came by the will of men,
but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by
the Holy Spirit” (2 Peter 1:20-21)
“the entirety of Your (God’s) word is truth” (Psalm 119:160)
