There are many ways to get to know our Lord and Savior. One of them is getting to know the Christ in you, the hope of glory. If the new nature of Christ was imparted at salvation, if Jesus came into your heart; you have His nature in you. If so, what does that look like? It looks like Galations 5:22-23.
The result of His presence within us is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. We can walk in these realities now, as Christians. When we cooperate in these and walk according the Spirit we are in communion/cooperation with Jesus. We are knowing Him intimately and practicing His nature.
It is important to know cognitively. It is better to know intimately. We are so blessed! We can know our Savior by studying His acts and teachings. We can know about Him by scriptural descriptions of Him. We can know Him by prayer and communing with Him. We can know Jesus by walking in His Life He has given us. He is a great and wonderful Savior who has given us an incredible number of opportunities to get to know Him. GET TO KNOW JESUS.
