5. That is probably right.
It's a warning against blasphemy, i.e. the assumption that you can know God so perfectly that you know his/her name.

I should think this would also extend to "god's" will wouldn't it? Which raises the point that no matter how certain you are that you are doing "God's Will" you must also keep the possibility that you are not, right?

Although I've always been confused by the idea of things that can happen, or be done, that are outside of an omnipotent being's will.
