Yada is an Old Testament word that means “to know”. Ginosko is a New Testament word that means “to know”. This kind of knowing is relational, progressive, and impactful. It means to be aware, to perceive, to discern, to know through experience or encounter, to know intimately. We are known very personally by God. He desires us to know Him personally, and then to make Him known! The fruit of the Christian life comes from knowing God personally!
