How can I be anything but my true self?
I am only me.
It may be the case that I can be split into internal factions. Perhaps one identifiable part feels attraction while another feels revulsion. Both are components of the construction that is 'me.' Internal conflicts get resolved, or don't. They still are lumped to make up 'me.'
Any external perspective on this depends on the observer, whether they are a lumper or a splitter.
My past is only memory, my future is only a prediction. At the moment, I am 'me' and can be no other. Hence I am the true me, my true self.
Over time, I may find I have changed and compare what I was to what I am. But at any given time, I am me and can be no other.

So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat?
