I don't think that we have to be "on the same plane" as God or even close. I do think that a decent intelligent and educated human adult has enough ability to judge things for themselves rather then having to blindly accept something because someone says that God says this is the way it should be, even if that someone is indeed the creator of the universe. On occasion that judgment may be "I don't understand this enough to make a decision", or even "since I don't understand this enough I will defer to someone who I think understands it better then I do since a decision has to be made now and I cannot sufficiently increase my understanding in such a short time", but neither of those should be the default position.
