It has not yet been revealed what we shall be

1 John 3:2
Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

This verse refers to the transformation when we are finally with the Lord. It also highlights the fact that we do not know everything and the God has chosen not to reveal to us everything. We can only be certain of Him, not certain of everything that He would do. This is also part of faith. Our believe is in Him, not the specific doctrine per se, though we should all know the foundational doctrine well. It is also freedom in that although we are not certain about everything, yet we are certain of Him. This should also encourage us to leave our burdens to Him rather than find a solution for everything.
