by "the truth" I mean the specific religion. I am not arguing existence of God. In this question.

Truth is like a Jigsaw puzzle. Right now I only have part of the picture put together. That is what I can see and call truth. I work on the puzzle everyday but maybe I only put in place one more piece. When I see God face to face that is when the puzzle will be complete.
" We know in part...but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away.
" For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I shall know fully just as I have been fully known ...."
1 Corinthians 13: 9, 10, 12.

I think people say they don't always understand why God allows certain things or they don't understand the logic behind some of His plans. If you're a human being and you have emotions and believe in God, you understand Him. It's possible to not see the entire logic of some things but still believe that God doesn't lie or that you understand Him.

I claim God is beyond our logical understanding (in this life) but we can know him, but not know one knows the truth about GOd until they are standing face to face (so to speak) with God.

Understanding His ways is too much for a human brain.
Yet the spirit knows the truth from a lie. Sometimes he uses logic...but for powerful things He can only use the spirit.
Its a brain versus spirit thing.....hows your spirit doing?

We can understand "limited" aspects of God.., but we cant understand God fully.
Its like, you may think you know all there is about your own Dad.., but I guarantee you, that you don't.
Some people (as fans) think they know all there is to know about their favorite movie star or singer.., but in all due honesty, they know nothing when you get down to it.
The difference between understanding God fully and understanding someone we think we know.., its possible to know and understand about %60 to %70 of a specific human being. With God however, we are given all we really need to know about him and Its not even 3% worth. But that 3% is sufficient as for our concern.

anything that is infinite is beyond our comprehension. We think in limits. We cannot even envision an infinite line.
as for the truth about God you first need to define what is the truth and according to whose perspective.

Of course I know the truth about God. I met him personally.

You need to study the Bible. Some things are beyond our understanding and some things are made perfectly clear. God doesn't have to do things the way we think He should.

No, God is revealed through logic, that is how I know.
