Face-to-face with God as the referent of "the perfect" in 1 Corinthians 13

Update - My Channel Has Been Restored! Thank you! (with Q&A) 00:13:30 – 00:14:00

Mike elaborates on why "the perfect" refers to the eternal state, using the internal logic of 1 Corinthians 13.

Mike points to verse 11 (child/man analogy) and verse 12 (seeing in a mirror dimly vs. face to face) and verse 12b ("now I know in part, then I shall know fully"). He argues "face to face" and "knowing fully" describe eschatological fellowship with God, not a completed canon. Spiritual gifts such as knowledge become unnecessary when one has full knowledge in God's presence.

κεφαλή (kephale) — Logos Clippings (Cheryl Schatz)

A curated collection of Logos Bible Software clippings compiled by Cheryl Schatz examining the Greek word κεφαλή (kephale) and Hebrew רֹאשׁ (rosh). The clippings draw from lexicons, encyclopedias, commentaries, and academic journals to argue that "source/origin" is the primary metaphorical meaning of kephale rather than "authority/leader," with implications for interpreting 1 Corinthians 11, Ephesians 5, and Colossians 1.
