Authenticity

“But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
2 Corinthians 3:18
“Authenticity (TRUE BEING) is not the result of a man being true to himself, rather it is the fruit of a life that (by God’s Grace) has become TRUE IN GOD. It is in the seeing of HIM that I know myself (see Isaiah 6, Revelation 1:12–17). HE is the TRUTH, and it is in the seeing of HIM alone are we changed from the corruption of ourselves into HIS LIKENESS!”
– Brian Troxel (Quoted from his book “Paths of the Shepherd“)
