“What does the Bible say about knowledge?”……The word "knowledge" in the Bible denotes an understanding, a recognition, or an acknowledgment. To "know" something is to perceive it or to be aware of it. Many times in Scripture, knowledge carries the idea of a deeper appreciation of something or a relationship with someone. The Bible is clear that the knowledge of God is the most valuable knowledge a human being can possess. But it is also clear that simply being aware of God's existence is not sufficient; the knowledge of God must encompass the deep appreciation for and relationship with Him. ……We know from Scripture that knowledge is a gift from God. …Proverbs 2:6…For the Lord grants wisdom! From his mouth come knowledge and understanding. -the Word of God-and that the wisdom of God results in knowledge and understanding.

James adds that those who lack wisdom have only to ask for it and God will give it abundantly and generously. God's desire is for all to know Him, appreciate Him, and have a relationship with Him; therefore, He grants to all who truly seek Him the wisdom that leads to knowledge. …Further, because knowledge is God's to give, those who reverence Him will receive it. …Proverbs 1:7

Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.…The word "fear" here is not the dread or terror, but a reverence for God, respect for His law, His will, His rule in our lives, and the fear of offending Him, which will lead us to obey, worship and praise Him.…God gives the gift of knowledge out of His infinite store of knowledge.…God's creation reveals the Creator's knowledge.…Psalm 19:2…Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known.…The vastness of God's knowledge and creative power are on display continually and are clearly seen in what He has created, Paul reminds us in …Romans 1:19-20…They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them.20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.… Not only is God's knowledge infinite, but it is absolute:…Romans 11:33…Oh, how great are God's riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!…When God came to earth in the Person of Jesus Christ, He became the embodiment of knowledge:…Colossians 2:2-3…I want them to be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. I want them to have complete confidence that they understand God's mysterious plan, which is Christ himself.3 In him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

Human knowledge, apart from God, is not only flawed, but the Bible also refers to it as worthless because it isn't tempered by love

1 Corinthians 13:2

If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God's secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn't love others, I would be nothing.

The knowledge man possesses tends to make one proud.Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up

1 Corinthians 8:1

Now regarding your question about food that has been offered to idols. Yes, we know that "we all have knowledge" about this issue. But while knowledge makes us feel important, it is love that strengthens the church.

Therefore, the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, without seeking God, is foolishness,the more knowledge, the more grief

Ecclesiastes 1:17-18… So I set out to learn everything from wisdom to madness and folly. But I learned firsthand that pursuing all this is like chasing the wind. The greater my wisdom, the greater my grief. To increase knowledge only increases sorrow.

Worldly knowledge is a false knowledge which is opposed to the truth

1 Timothy 6:20-21…Timothy, guard what God has entrusted to you. Avoid godless, foolish discussions with those who oppose you with their so-called knowledge. Some people have wandered from the faith by following such foolishness. May God's grace be with you all.

Human knowledge is opposed to God's knowledge and therefore is no knowledge at all; rather, it is foolishness. …For the Christian, knowledge implies a relationship.

For example:

Genesis 4:1

Now Adam had sexual relations with his wife, Eve, and she became pregnant. When she gave birth to Cain, she said, "With the Lord's help, I have produceda man!"

The NKJV puts it this way:

Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, "I have acquired a man from the Lord.",

when the Bible says that "Adam knew Eve his wife", it means he had a physical union with her. Spiritual relationships are also described this way. Jesus used the word "know" to refer to His saving relationship with those who follow Him:.

John 10:14

"I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me,

He also told His disciples

John 8:32

"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free"

By contrast, Jesus said to the unbelieving Jews

John 8:55

but you don't even know him. I know him. If I said otherwise, I would be as great a liar as you! But I do know him and obey him

Therefore, to know Christ is to have faith in Him, to follow Him, to have a relationship with Him, to love and by loved by Him.

John 14:7…If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!"

1 Corinthians 8:3…But the person who loves God is the one whom God recognizes. (Some manuscripts read the person who loves has full knowledge)

Galatians 4:9

So now that you know God (or should I say, now that God knows you), why do you want to go back again and become slaves once more to the weak and useless spiritual principles of this world?…2 Timothy 2:19…But God's truth stands firm like a foundation stone with this inscription: "The Lord knows those who are his," (Num 16:5 ) and "All who belong to the Lord must turn away from evil." (Isa 52:11)

Increasing in the knowledge of God is part of Christian maturity and is something all Christians are to experience

2 Peter 3:18

Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
