The Knowledge of Christ in Glory.
Paul says, "that I may know Him," that is as He is now. And I ask, would you not like to know Him as He is now? Do you think it would content a devoted wife or child, to be able to say, I knew my husband or my father ten years ago, but I do not know him now? Why, we never heard of such a thing. Yet that is really the way some think of Christ. They know Him as the Saviour who died here, but they do not know Him as He is now — the glorified Man. But you ask, who is up to it? I go with you there. I know how little I am up to it; but I cannot shrink from Philippians 3:10 "That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings . . . for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord."
