Here is an excerpt from an important article published at ExtremeTheology.com entitled "God in a Box or God As HE Has Revealed Himself":
Today, if you happen to be conversing with a group of CHRISTIANS and you boldly, confidently, and succinctly talk about God and His characteristics, attributes and what He has done you are very likely to be accused of 'putting God in a box'?One of these Christians might even throw a Rob Bell quote or two in your face and tell you that you need to not be so arrogant and should adopt a more humble hermeneutic. According to Bell, 'The moment God is figured out with nice neat lines and definitions, we are no longer dealing with God. We are dealing with somebody we made up.' (Velvet Elvis, Page 25)
Poppycock!
In the scriptures we have God's revelation of himself and that divine self-revelation gives us some very hard neat lines and definitions about who God is, what He is like, what He has done and what true worship of Him entails"
