You ever give yourself to the thought: the real you to God, is the Christ in you. That is what I am to God - that is what He knows, what He sees in me. We see it differently! to me I'm just a me and God is fixing me up working on me to make me better and help me be a better person.
The simplest answer for an on going believers is, Galatians 2:20. You have no you anymore - not to God. Only to you do you still exist as just a you person. That lack in knowledge of 'who we are' is the understanding that is always being worked on by God to get you to see you do not have a life of your own.. or just a you you!
You gave up that life (willingly) the moment you believed! You said I cannot save myself when you believed you needed a savior, and could not save yourself.
And God! said ok you are now dead in Christ and the life you have now is Christ! Galatians 2:20. Not like Him, not like Jesus of nazareth, not like anyone else - but the Christ that is in you. Read the scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life.
