[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope] Philippians 3:10 (AMPC)
To know Christ is to know our identity and purpose in life for we were made, we exist, we are upheld, we function in Him, through Him, and for Him. Colossians 1:16-17.
How do get to know Christ? It’s not having mental historical and biographical facts about Him.
It’s to personally intimately know, identify with, and experience everything He did in His crucifixion on the Cross, death, and resurrection.
It is to know Him as our sin and sickness bearer and remover, to know Him as our Righteousness, healing and health. It’s to know Him as our death, hell and the grave destroyer. To know Him as our Resurrection and Eternal Life. It’s to know Him as our curse and poverty terminator. To know Him as our blessing and Prosperity. It is to know Him as our all in all.
