Strongly recommend this book. It's simply written and easy to understand. Paul says we are to examine ourself to see if we are in the faith. This book does a good job at just that.

This book was a great benefit to my journey in faith. Packer does a great job on emphasizing it is not enough just to know of God, but one must KNOW him. It's about relationship not distant understanding. This book is all about application.
The closing chapters in particular are very convicting, I especially loved the chapter emphasizing how we are the very children of God, and all that means.
I very much see this as a book I will reread many times in the years to come.

Great learning but a hard read. I was lost at times with scientific and theology language and explanations. One thing I learned for sure is most human nature of asking God for things but not attempting to make necessary changes for growth or even dedicating time for meaningful prayer.

The book "Knowing God" which was written by Dr. J.I. Packer opens your mind and heart who God is. Dr. Packer passed away a few weeks ago but his teachings in that book remind the master-theologian is God Himself. As a Canadian Citizen, I will remember the late Dr. Packer who trusted God and what matters most is to obey and love God always.

A solid description about knowing God, reliable and faithful to Scripture. I bought this copy for my sister. My original copy has been read about 4 or 5 times over.

In time this book will be a classic, with recommendations by Billy Graham, Joni Tada, R.C. Sproul and others.

Just finished reading this, and some of the reading I found to be deep but at the same time yearning to go deeper. I am one who loves to read a good book more then once, and this is one of them. I only hope and pray, that other Christians will take the time to read this book and share it with other. Not many books of this caliber written today. love it

Very helpful - especially in getting a sensible viewpoint

The book is a collection of articles on each topic but there is a pattern to them that brings balance into the topics.
I think each article/chapter is best read allowing plenty of time to digest the very thoughtful contents. I found I needed to read each chapter several times to take in all the information.
Very good material. Well worth having.

Too dry
Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on March 17, 2018Verified Purchase
Second time in this book and I recommend Philip Yancheng if you want to know God or Loren Cunningham as this book is far too dry and God is not dry at all.

JI Packer delivers in this book a breath-taking meditation on the imlportance of knowing God, every Christian has to lnow God and to examine himself to test if he is truly in the faith, this book guides you through te Bible to do this and if you are truly saved this study reasures you that one day whom you know only as a reflection you will now him in person in the kingdom of God. Beware, this book will change the way you approach to God and his Word.
