However, you do not find God himself in the bible. You find the testamony of God. You can learn about God from the bible, but you can only really know God by developing a relationship with him.



Karl Barth and paul Tillich would be proud. That is the exact neo-orthodox position. To try and find God without looking into the word that he inspired is to dabble in the occult. Basically empty your mind and seek God. Of course you used "Christian" terms, but it is occultic just the same.
