PRINCIPLES OF BIBLICAL HERMENETICS ; M. M. NINAN<br />
When we are talking about the nature of God and His character, the revelation is progressing<br />
revealing God more and more fully just like the picture get sharper and sharper showing the<br />
details by increasing pixels per inch.<br />
This is then one example of how one of our senses gives a progressive unveiling of the true<br />
picture.<br />
Dont forget that even in the material realm man have five senses and we get our images<br />
through all the five senses. This then is only in one realm or dimension of matter. Add to it<br />
the mental, spiritual and divine dimension and then an immense infinite dimensions. That<br />
will give us the wide idea of the need of a progressive revelation which leads us from an<br />
unsharp to sharper image.<br />
There are other dimensions even within the human realm. We know realities only through<br />
their properties. Properties are simply a function of interaction between two or more factors.<br />
Hence Paul speaks of understanding God through creation.<br />
