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

For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, so that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine on them.

For it is God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone 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 from the Father, full of grace and truth.

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

according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust.

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

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

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

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

And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the Man of Heaven.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any power, but a new creation.

that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which is corrupted according to the deceitful lusts,

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

and have put on the new man who is renewed in full true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him,

not by works of righteousness which we have done, 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, giving all diligence, supply with your faith virtue, with virtue knowledge,

with godliness brotherly affection, and with brotherly affection love.

For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his sins of the past.

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.

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the Law of God, nor indeed can be.
