True knowledge is a depth of understanding and continuous learning of and about.
“3And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” – John 17:3 (ESV)
When we truly “know”, we have placed into our mind and our heart that which we have learned, otherwise we have simply captured information for recall later. When we get to “know” another person, they are not just an acquaintance, we have placed them in our heart and our depth of understanding for them increases beyond just recalling their face.
We, at least I can speak for myself, have never met Jesus face to face, yet if He were to walk in the room, I feel as though, like those that had met Him, I would instantly recognize Him. I feel that I have established a relationship with Jesus Christ through my continued study and devotion to Him that I now have a loving, nurturing, friend and family member that only wants the best for me always. I feel as though I know God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit.
This “knowing” of God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit have giving me eternal life. This Eternal life is more than physical of course, it is the full “living” for and with God as my Friend, Brother, Father, and Lord.
Do you “know” God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit? Are you able to count God as Friend, Brother, Father, and Lord? Are you experiencing Eternal Life through your Knowing of Jesus?
