In 1 Samuel 3:21 (here @ Bible Gateway) we read that the Lord revealed Himself to Samuel by the Word of the Lord. In John 5:39 – 40 (here @ Bible Gateway) we read that the Scriptures, that is, in context, the Old Testament, reveals Christ. 2 Peter 1:1 – 4 (here @ Bible Gateway) tells us that we can become partakers of the divine nature through the promises of God.
Reflect on those passages.
In both the Old and New Testaments, we find that if we want to know the Lord, the Bible is the means to do so.
So, if someone says they want to know God, and they are not in the Word, it is going to be very difficult for them to achieve their goal.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a lot of people who are attempting to know Him by other means. They will fail.
