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.

Because if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, this [one] is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

among whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, so that the illumination of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine on them.

Because it is God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who shined in our hearts to give [the] light of the knowledge of the glory of God in [the] face of Jesus Christ.

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

These things Isaiah said when he saw His glory and spoke about Him.

according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, [with] which I was entrusted.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, all things have become new.

Because whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers.

And do not fashion yourselves after this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and well pleasing and perfect will of God.

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for [its] lusts.

And just as we have borne the image of the [man] made of dust, let us also bear the image of the heavenly [Man].

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but a new creation.

that you put off, concerning your former way of life, the old man which is being corrupted according to the deceitful lusts,

and that you put on the new man which was created in the likeness of God, in true righteousness and holiness.

and have put on the new man who is renewed in full knowledge according to the image of Him who created it,

not by works of righteousness which we did, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

But also [for] this very reason, making every effort, provide with your faith virtue, and with virtue knowledge,

and with godliness brotherly love, and with brotherly love, love.

For [he] who lacks these things is blind, being shortsighted, having forgotten the cleansing of his past sins.

so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

Therefore the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it does not submit to the law of God, nor indeed can it.
