Anyone who is mature in faith should adopt this view..” (Phillipians 3:8,15). 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the Mature challenge of a Christian, to Count all lost but knowing Christ. It tests us indeed, but in a good way. Thankfully the know in knowing Christ is Ginosko or Epignosko which is to personally know in Christ in a intimate relationship.
