John 17:3
3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

We come to know God both by becoming more as he is… but also comprehending his goodness, power, wisdom, etc. even though we may not be able to emulate this adequately.

If we understand the atonement well surely we understand God’s goodness, power, wisdom, and his long suffering.
