1. Hymns
453. I want to know more about Jesus. I desperately want to know the great and wide grace and the love that redeemed me. My lifelong wish. My lifelong wish. I desperately want to know the love that redeemed me.
2. Knowing salvation and eternal life
1) Knowing Jesus John 17:3 KRV
This is eternal life: to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
2) Believing in Jesus
John 6:40. This is my Father’s will: that everyone who sees his Son and believes in him will have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
Believing in Jesus and knowing Jesus are the same thing.
3. Knowing philosophy and theology
In philosophy, knowing yourself is wisdom. So Socrates said, know yourself. In Buddhism, knowing oneself is called attaining enlightenment. However, in Christianity, it is said that knowing Jesus is salvation.
4. Maria’s knowledge
The One Who Received Grace (Luke 1:26-38) The angel Gabriel was sent by God to a garden called Nazareth in Galilee, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary, and she went in to her. He said to her, “Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you.” When the virgin heard this, she was astonished and wondered what was the meaning of such a greeting. Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. Behold, you have conceived and will have a son.” And you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great, and he will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end. Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I do not know man?”
Although he knows the man named Joseph, he confesses that he did not have sexual relations with him. So he said he didn’t know the man.
5. Knowing God is more important than knowing sexual relationships.
These days, as I get older, I get to know God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit more than I know my wife. I know you better than other believers know my wife. However, I am getting to know the Holy Spirit better than I know my wife. I don’t have much time to sleep with my wife. This is because my wife sleeps on the 4th floor and I sleep on the 2nd floor. However, because I always pray with the Holy Spirit, I know him better than my wife. Through my experience that the Holy Spirit is with us, I am learning more and more deeply about God and how He blesses us when we give material to Him.
6. Knowing God means loving God.
1) 1 John 4:7-10 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. The love of God This is how it appeared to us: God sent his only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through him. In this is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and gave his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Because you sent it
To love God is to know God. Loving God is loving Jesus. Loving God means loving my neighbor.
7. Knowing God means not committing sin.
1) 1 John 3:6 No one who abides in Him commits no sin; no one who sins has seen Him or known Him.
For those who have sinned to know God, we must confess our sins.
1 John 1:9-10 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make God a liar, and he The word is not in us.
