This verse is talking about knowing the love of Christ. As this verse shows, it means more than just having "head knowledge." This knowledge must affect one's heart. We can learn about Christ's love by reading the Bible, but we truly come to appreciate and know that love more by practical application in our lives. This way we come to truly appreciate the feelings of the Christ and we will "know the love of the Christ" through personal experience.
