Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days? Job 24:1
"After the knowledge of, and obedience to, the will of God, the next aim
must be to know something of His attributes of wisdom, power and
goodness as evidenced by His handiwork.... It is evident that an
acquaintance with natural laws means no less than an acquaintance with
the mind of God therein expressed."
James Prescott Joule (father of thermodynamics,) address to the British Association, 1873
