Summary/Abstract: In order to get to the knowledge of God, we must first know ourselves and thepurpose that God has for each individual human person. Those who had the sense ofspiritual knowledge knew God, but pretended not to know Him, perverting theirconsciences and freely preferring lies instead of Truth. Knowing God is donethrough prayer, through knowing the reasons planted by Him in creatures, and afterthat, according to the fulfillment of His commandments. Love is the perfect way toget to the knowledge of God.
