CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST
To be crucified is to be killed and punished by fastening one to a wooden cross. It also mean to be critized or punish somebody severely. Christ was crucified just for us all to be saved. He dropped all he could, just to come to the world in form of man to die for our sins. For GOD so loved the world, that he sent his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him, will not perish, but have everlasting life. Some believed this, but many are still yet to believe. If you haven’t, you are not saved and everlasting death and punishment await such after death. It is better to believe in Christ now, than postpone it. Now is the time for you to believe, CHRIST came to the world to die for your sins; you just have to confess and forsake your sins and believe in CHRIST. Acceptance with GOD comes by believing Christ.
However, to be crucified with Christ is you been dead for worldliness, sins and works of the flesh. It mean you no longer live, but Christ lives in you. The bible says Christ in me, my hope of glory. Greater is he that is in me, than he that is in the world. Yes, that is being crucified with Christ. When you are crucified with Christ, your flesh no longer has final say; it does things of the spirit. When you are crucified with Christ, you have the hope of glory. The beautiful with eternal life is sure for you. You see GOD in glory on the last day.
Paul said in Galatians 2 vs 20: I have been crucified with Christ and I myself no longer live; but Christ lives in me. And the real life I now have within this body is a result of my trusting in the son of GOD. When you are crucified with Christ, you have real life. Many don’t have real life, they have unreal life. The scriptures says: what shall it profit a man, when he gains all the whole world, but gains eternal life. A real life is eternal life, an unreal life is the destructive life.
Furthermore, we all need to be crucified with Christ, so he can live in us, so we can see him in glory on the last day. so we walk not in the flesh, but in the spirit and not fufill the lust of the flesh. I want you declare and confess this:
I have been crucified with Christ
I myself no longer live
But Christ lives in me
Christ in me, my hope of Glory
Halleluyah……
AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...
