To God be the glory! Thank you papa for sharing with us. I’m truly blessed. God replenish you
Happy resurrection Sunday
Galatians 2, Mark 16
-the resurrected life begins with death to our old life which powers a new life in the new creation
-John 3: 16 – Jesus’ death (and resurrection) saved us
-when Jesus died we died in Him and resurrected in Him when he arose back to life.
-We share in the resurrection life because we died in Him. No death, No new life. This new life is the life of God
-1 John 3: 16 – Jesus expects us to die for others by living a sacrificial life for Jesus so that Jesus saves others through us
-like Apostle Paul, we ought to die daily. We die to self, flesh & personal motif. And totally let Jesus live through us
-the resurrection life only finds expression in and through us provided we died in him Rom 8: 11
-the path of resurrection is the way of death Jn 12: 24, Heb 12: 1-3
-our life in Christ Jesus begins with genuine repentance
-Genuine repentance activates our death with Christ. This is prerequisite to rising in life in Christ
-it was for my sake that Christ died and I was among those that killed him. Mt 23: 34-40, Mt 10: 40-42, Mt 25: 30-40
-i admit I sinned against you Lord. Thank You Lord for saving me, for saving us.
-Genuine repentance begins with us first admitting that we were sinners, then we repent from our old ways, then embrace the death & resurrection of Christ, and accept Jesus as our Lord and savior
-when we don’t admit to repentance we resort to being discouraged and walk away, giving excuses and project to another person, or getting angry at the message or messenger
-our old identity is summarized into lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, and the pride of life. We crucify our old identity in Christ Jesus. So that a new life, the life of Christ springs up in us. Gal 2: 20
-with the resurrected life in us we now live for Jesus. Everything we are and have are for God’s glory
