What does knowing God entail in the New Covenant?

Knowing God in the New Covenant signifies a profound transformation where all believers are granted a relationship with Him characterized by intimacy and personal knowledge. Jeremiah 31:34 reveals that this new relationship does not require teaching others to know God; instead, all who belong to Him inherently know Him. This is fulfilled through Christ, whose redemptive work allows believers to have direct access to God, leading to eternal life defined in John 17:3 as knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He sent. This relational knowing is a defining feature of being one of God's sheep.
