What is
the practical value of this knowledge?
It is life:
John 17:3
Now this is
eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom
you have sent.
It
transforms:
2 Peter 2:20
If they have
escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
and are again entangled in it and overcome, they are worse off at the end than
they were at the beginning.
Jeremiah
22:16
He defended
the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well. Is that not what it
means to know me?” declares the LORD.
Isaiah
33:14-16
24 The
sinners in Zion are terrified; trembling grips the godless: “Who of us can dwell
with the consuming fire? Who of us can dwell with everlasting burning?”
15 He who
walks righteously and speaks what is right, who rejects gain from extortion and
keeps his hand from accepting bribes, who stops his ears against plots of
murder and shuts his eyes against contemplating evil—
16 this is
the man who will dwell on the heights, whose refuge will be the mountain
fortress. His bread will be supplied, and water will not fail him.
