God Knows His Enemies, Too (Genesis 4:17–18)

July 20, 2024 Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church Season 4 Episode 113

We often take comfort in the fact that God knows us better than we know ourselves, and thus sympathizes with us (when appropriate) and knows how to help us. But God also intimately knows his, and the Church’s, enemies, which should also be a tremendous comfort to us.
