“We reduce the Gospel to just a message of heaven and hell. Here is your ticket to get in and a way to avoid hell.

The implications of the gospel is not first of all for some future event. God wants you to understand the implications of what he has done for you in this present moment. ”

2 Corinthians 3:18
Mirror Translation

The days of window-shopping are over! In him every face is unveiled. In gazing with wonder at the blueprint likeness of God displayed in human form we suddenly realize that we are looking at ourselves! Every feature of his image is mirrored in us! This is the most radical transformation engineered by the Spirit of the Lord; we are lead from an inferior mind-set to the revealed endorsement of our authentic identity. Mankind is his glory! 

A mirror sees the current reflection, not a past or future image. In verse 18 it says he sees us and we see us. They are the same image! He paid for our sins and to him it is gone cast faraway never to be seen again. He sees me forgiven, whole, and perfect (NOW!)
