Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
(II. Timothy 2.3).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ,
and do not think about how to gratify the desires
of the sinful nature.
(Romans 13.14).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
ALIVE WITH CHRIST
We know that our old self was
nailed to the cross with Him
in order that our body of sin
might be made ineffective and
inactive for evil, that we might
no longer be slaves of sin.
For when a person dies, he or she
is freed from sin.
Now if we have died with Christ,
we believe that we shall also live
with Him,
Because we know that Christ being
once raised from the dead, will never
die again, death no longer has power
over Him.
For by the death He died, He died to sin
once for all, and the life He lives, He is
living to God ( in unbroken relationship).
Even so consider yourselves also dead to
sin and your relationship to it broken, but
alive to God ( in unbroken relationship)
in Christ.
( Romans 6.6-11).
Consider the following:
1) Your life is hid in Christ.
2) The life you live is no longer yours.
3) If you have already died with Him
you live with Him, through Him.
4) Therefore the life you live henceforth
is the life of Jesus Christ.
4) You are dead to sin, but
alive to righteousness.
5) His life is true life.
6) Jesus Christ is the way, the truth
and the life.
7) Jesus Christ is the resurrection
and the life.
BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God,
for it is not subject to the law of God,
nor indeed can be.
So then, those who are in the flesh can not please God.
BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit,
if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you.
Now if anyone does not
have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.
And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin,
but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead
dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will
also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit
who dwells in you.
( Romans 6.7-11).
