I Have Been Crucified With Christ

I have been crucified with Christ,
it is no longer I who lives but Christ lives in me.
The life I now live in the flesh
I live by faith in the Son of God
who loved me and gave Himself for me.

The most important world which we, human beings, ought to know,

Is the UNSEEN WORLD.
The things of the unseen world are the very things which manipulate the visible one,
And Christians have absolutely no reason to be bewildered by this fact.
The eys of our heart have been opened by God to understand this.
And because of this,
We live in a daily struggle which seemed to be of no reason to the unsaved soul.

To say that I have been crucified with Christ, is to say that I have put to death the ME who onced reigned in my life.
Yet somehow, that ME returns to haunt and wreck havoc every now and then.
But I have been crucified with Christ.
Period.

And hence, it is no longer I who lives, but Christ lives in me.
Who do people see when they see me?
What do people hear when they hear me?
To say that Christ lives in me will mean that the fullness of the deity of Christ lives in me.
His holiness. His beauty. His power. His passion.
Do the eyes of mere mortals around me see this supernatural side of Jesus in me?

The life I now live in the flesh,
will corrupt with my flesh, if I chooses to live by it.

But I will live by faith in the Son of God.

Who loves me

And gave Himself for me.
