Our current understanding of spiritual matters is akin to looking at a reflection in a mirror—imperfect and incomplete. Mirrors in ancient times were made of polished metal, offering a dim and unclear reflection. This metaphor illustrates our limited perception of divine truths. However, there is a promise of a future where we will see God and spiritual realities with perfect clarity, as if face to face. This speaks to the hope of believers for a time when all will be revealed and understood fully. It also reflects the intimate relationship God desires with us, where we will know Him as deeply as He knows us now. This assurance encourages patience and faith, reminding us that while our current knowledge is partial, a time will come when we will have complete understanding and be in perfect communion with God.
For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
1 Corinthians 13:12
