How do we know God's knowledge is more important than our knowledge of Him?

Answered in 1 source

God's knowledge of us is foundational to our salvation, as indicated in Matthew 7:23.

Matthew 7:23 reveals that Christ will declare to some, 'I never knew you,' indicating that His knowledge of individuals is what ultimately determines their standing before Him. This emphasizes the notion that our understanding or awareness of God does not equate to salvation if He does not first know us. In the context of sovereign grace theology, it is critical to recognize that our salvation hinges upon God's initiating knowledge rather than our own efforts or recognitions.
