The Knowledge of Our Ignorance
Ephesians 3:18
May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;


The more we know the more are we conscious of our ignorance of that which is unknown, or, as Dr. Chalmers used to put it in his class — borrowing an illustration from his favourite mathematics — "The wider the diameter of light, the greater is the circumference of darkness." The more a man knows, he comes at more points into contact with the unknown.

(C. H. Spurgeon.)
