There's a subtle, but huge difference, between knowing about God, and having a personal relationship with Him.
You can know that God is all powerful and all knowing, without experiencing the peace that comes from trusting Him.
You can know that God forgives sin, without experiencing the grace of His forgiveness for the worst thing you've ever done.
You can know that God wants you to have joy, without experiencing the patience He shows while you fight His plans to provide it.
You can know that Jesus paid for your access to this relationship, without feeling the love that compelled Him to pay such a price.
Knowing God, vs. knowing about God, is a distinction that makes all the difference.
