People can know God without Scripture, however; it is most likely to be in a distorted or suppressed sense. People can know of God’s existence and salvation, but their viewpoint is limited. The understanding apart from God is limited due to sin. Sin causes a warped and hampered sense of God. The Bible has mentioned the wise who are actually foolish because they do not believe, those who can not see so they do not believe, and the scales on the eyelids. Therefore; apart from Scripture there is just a superficial almost fairytale like view of God. The study of Scripture brings about a real and tangible sense and wisdom of God. (Grudem, 58-59).
