NASB | 1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 13:12 For now [in this time of imperfection] we see in a mirror dimly [a blurred reflection, a riddle, an enigma], but then [when the time of perfection comes we will see reality] face to face. Now I know in part [just in fragments], but then I will know fully, just as I have been fully known [by God]. |
Bible Question: Do you know who you are in Christ? I mean, do you really know? Have you been set free? Do you know that you are completely forgiven, totally justified, and completely sanctified? If anyone out there really knows their true identity in Christ, I would love to hear from them. |
Bible Answer: Greetings bingobongo - knowing who we are in Christ is not the same as believing who we are in Christ. We can know that we are loved, accepted, forgiven, justified, righteous, reconciled, and regenerated, but until we act (respond according to what we believe) we are only hearers of the Word . . . this goes right along with faith without works is dead! See Jer 9:23-24. I will boast that I know the Lord - I believe what He says and I am in the process of submitting to His authority in my life to "renew my mind." For as a man thinks in his heart, so is he!(Pr 23:7) As I choose to believe HIS Truth, He changes the way I think and my actions will reflect that inner adjustment. Robert McGee's "The Search for Significance" addresses who we really are "IN CHRIST" in detail. I suggest that we will not fully know the cost of our redemption or our true identity in Christ until we know as we are fully known.
