For now we see through a mirror by reflection, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him."

And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he has come to know nothing yet as he ought to know.

Will you find out the traces of the Lord? Or have you come to the end of that which the Almighty has made?

Heaven is high, and what will you do? And there are deeper things than those in hell; what do you know?

Behold, these are parts of His way; and we will hearken to Him at the least intimation of His word: but who knows the strength of His thunder, when He shall employ it?

O Lord my God, You have multiplied Your wonderful works, and in Your thoughts there is none who shall be likened to You; I declared and spoke [of them]; they exceeded in number.

The knowledge of You is too wonderful for me; it is very difficult, I cannot [attain] to it.

Who has gone up to heaven, and come down? Who has gathered the winds in His bosom? Who has wrapped up the waters in a garment? Who has dominion of all the ends of the earth? What is His name? Or what is the name of His children?

All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one fully knows the Son except the Father, nor does anyone fully know the Father except the Son, and [the one] to whom the Son wills to reveal [Him].

"For who has known [the] mind of the LORD? Or who has been His counselor?"

To me, the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

that you may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height--

and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

that their hearts may be encouraged, being joined together in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to a full knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,

in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

Concerning this salvation the prophets have sought out and inquired carefully, having prophesied of the grace [that would come] to you,

To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to you they were ministering these things, which things were now announced to you by those who proclaimed the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven--things which angels desire to look into.

Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He appears, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him as He is.
