When Paul wrote of knowing “fully”, he was referring to when we must see Christ face to face.

God gives believers spiritual gifts for their lives on earth in order to build up, serve, and strengthen fellow Christians.

The spiritual gifts are for the church. In eternity, we will be made perfect and blameless and will be in the very presence of our heavenly Father. We will no longer need spiritual gifts, and they will come to an end.

Then, we will have a full understanding and appreciation for one another as unique expressions of God’s infinite creativity.

We will use our differences to worship God.

With this perspective, let us treat each other with the same love and unity that we will one day share.

1 Corinthians 13:10-12
10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 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.
