St. Silouan the Athonite: Many philosophers and scholars have arrived at a belief in the existence of God but they have not come to know God...

We may study as much as we will, but we shall still not come to know the Lord unless we live according to His commandments, for the Lord is not made known through learning but by the Holy Spirit.

Many philosophers and scholars have arrived at a belief in the existence of God but they have not come to know God.

And we monks apply ourselves day and night to the study of the Lord’s command but not all of us by a long way have come to know the Lord, although we believe in Him.

St. Silouan the Athonite
