Si Enim Comprehendis

Si enim comprehendis, non est Deus

God is also a mystery. Augustine wrote, si enim comprehendis, non est Deus*, which means roughly, “If you can comprehend it, it isn’t God.” That doesn’t mean that we can’t know anything about God.

Context Summary: Titus 1:10–16 explains the proper way to deal with false teachers. On the island of Crete, some men taught that circumcision was required for Christians, which caused entire families to fall apart in argument. Titus is commanded to counter these claims strongly—to “rebuke them sharply.” The purpose of this response was to lead people to correct doctrine.
