      Preface

      First, I acknowledge that this project came to completion only through the grace of God. Second while you are reading this book, if just one word 'speaks to your heart', please acknowledge that feeling by giving credit to the only one to whom the credit is worthy by saying, Praise God, Amen.

      This book is an exegesis on (1 Corinthians 13:12). Now we see but a poor 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. .When we endeavor to gaze into a poor reflection, the question that should be answered is as follows: What Do We See, When We Look Into the Poor Reflection?

      Introduction

      So then, when you endeavor to gaze into a poor reflection, the question that must be answered for yourself is as follows: What Do I See?

      This topic will be explored on several levels. The first level is singular. These chapters deal with what the individual (you) see. The second level is plural, as in the usage of the word we. Several chapters deal with plurality. These chapters deal with the issues of society and community.

      Listed below are some of the questions that are explored in this book.  The format used is that of thoughtfully asking questions and postulating the answers. Some of those questions are;

      What is this poor reflection?

      How does my Understanding of the Bible affect what is seen?

      What role does society have in our understanding of what is seen?

      How do the writings and experiences of others affect what is seen?

      Since we are made in the image of God, do we see a reflection of God in ourselves?

      How does our view of ourselves impact what is seen?

      How does what you believe about God impact what is seen?

      How does the Holy Spirit affect what is seen?

      Overview

      It is important to reference other translations of the Bible. The entries (listed below) are the different translations of (1 Corinthians 13:12).

      King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)

      For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

      International Standard Version (©2008)

      Now we see only an indistinct image in a mirror, but then we will be face to face. Now what I know is incomplete, but then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known.

      Aramaic Bible in Plain English (©2010)

      Now we see as in a mirror, in an allegory, but then face-to-face. Now I know partially, but then I shall know as I
