What Does Ephesians 4:13 Mean?

The building up continues 'till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God.' There is a goal toward which the whole body presses: a shared, mature grasp of Christ. Growth has a destination, and that destination is oneness in knowing Him.

Paul describes it as reaching 'unto a perfect man,' the full measure of 'the stature of the fulness of Christ.' The church is to grow up into the likeness of its Lord, attaining a maturity measured by Christ Himself. Until then, the body keeps growing toward the fullness it finds in Him.
