The words "some do not know God" were written to the church in Corinth by the Apostle Paul.
"Awake from the drunken stupor righteously and no not sin, for some of you are ignorant of God. I speak to your shame." ( 1 Cor. 15:34)
There are certain tactics of those who do not know God on this dicussion forum. I will highlight some of the tactics you may expect to be used by some who do not know God but talk a lot here.
1.) If you claim to know God you are saying you are better than they are.
2.) If you claim to know God you are sectarian.
3.) If you claim to know God you are not a good world citizen.
4.) If you claim you know God you're too proud and not humble like they are.

1 Cor. 15:34 -
English Standard Version
Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For some have no knowledge of God.
King James Bible
. . . for some have not the knowledge of God:
Amplified Bible
Be sober-minded [be sensible, wake up from your spiritual stupor] as you ought, and stop sinning; for some [of you] have no knowledge of God [you are disgracefully ignorant of Him, and ignore His truths]. I say this to your shame.
It is a fact of life - Some have no knowledge of God.
On this forum some who do not know God use these tactics against those who confess to know God.
1.) Avoid admitting that they do not know God.
2.) Assume that you who confess knowledge of God think you are good because you say you know God but they are bad.
3.) Assume if they do not know God then no one else must know God either.
4,) Assume everybody knows pretty much the same as what they know.
5.) The claim to know God can only stem from pride.

This is not a thread on deification.
This is thread on the attitudes of many who talk and talk and talk here about God but do know have experience.
Some WANT no experience.
Some think experience is irrelevant.
Other assume experience must be delusional.
Others find excuses to dismiss any confessed knowing of God.
Witch trials, Inquisition, Politics, hypocrits in religion.
These stake there life and eternal destiny on their rationales that any supposed "knowing of God" is full of social problems.
Then there are those who say any kmnopwing of God must be advasarial to world citizenship and tolarance. To be ignorant of God is to be tolerant.
"You cannot know God and be a tolerant of other beliefs."
There are various tactics of those who speak lot about God in way of argument, but do not know what much of what they are talking about.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
Come to your senses and stop sinning, for some people are ignorant about God. I say this to your shame.
American Standard Version
Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak this to move you to shame.
Aramaic Bible in Plain English
Righteously awaken your hearts and do not sin, for there are some in whom the knowledge of God does not exist. I say that to your shame.
Then there are those who the not knowing of God is worn as a modern badge of honor. These are the loud and proud who spend their short lives boasting of not knowing God.
Life to them is fuller without God.
These are the loud and proud " Sure Don't Know any so-called God"
Sometimes they offer OTHER THINGS instead of the knowledge of God.
Other things besides the knowing of God are presented as much superior.
In fact if there was a God God would care about these other things which they replace God with.
These are those with and idol or more to stand in the place for God as much more significant.

Proverbs 16:18
@sonship saidI think that to a great extent knowledge requires a separation (even if only temporary and/or conceptual) of the would-be knower from the object of knowing, even in the case of knowing oneself.

@sonship saidYou sound paranoid, sonship. At least no one is likening your beliefs to animal excrement.
1.) If you claim to know God you are saying you are better than they are.
2.) If you claim to know God you are sectarian.
3.) If you claim to know God you are not a good world citizen.
4.) If you claim you know God you're too proud and not humble like they are.
@sonship saidDevils know God too.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI gather that you are not Christian.
You don't claim to 'know' God. You claim (bizarrely) to be 'becoming' God. That is what makes you proud and unchristian.
So why the Ghost-knighting on behalf of Christians?
@sonship saidFor some, just a hint of the Light beyond is enough, and verbal clutter be damned. 😉
