【關於神的信念】
雖然相信神(belief IN God)是必須的，你們關於神的信念(belief ABOUT God)更為重要。
你必須不只「相信神」以認識我，你也必須「願意真正地認識」我，
而非只停留在「你認為你知道」關於我的事 。此即意願萌生之處。
如果「你對關於我的信念」使得你不可能認識我真正的樣子，
那麼，全世界所有的信仰也不會有用。
你將繼續以「你認為你知道的事」代替事實真正的情況 。
你必須願意暫時停止「你所想像你已了解的神」之想法，
以便認識「你從未想像的神」。
因為關於神，你們有許多與真相毫不相似的想像。
摘自《與神為友》第5章
So, while a belief IN God is necessary, your belief ABOUT God is also important.
That's where willingness comes in. You must not only believe in God to know Me, you must also be willing to really know Me—not simply know what you think you know about Me.
If your beliefs about Me make it impossible to know Me as I really am, then all the belief in the world won't work. You'll continue to know what you think you know, instead of what is really so.
You must be willing to suspend what you imagine you already know about God in order to know God as you never imagined.
