We Share In Jesus' Ressurection

"Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection:” Romans 6:4-5

Through the power of Christ in our lives we are now in the likeness of Jesus’ resurrection! Jesus is only alive because of the power of God that is within Him. Jesus only lives by the power of the Holy Spirit that gives Him eternal life, and praise God we are now alive with Jesus through the exact same power of God. Just as Jesus is, so are we, in the likeness of His resurrection. We now have the exact same Spirit and the same life giving Anointing that Jesus has. We are one with and alive with God as Jesus is One with and alive with God! We are now members of Jesus’ body, flesh of His flesh, and bone of His bone! Our old man is crucified with Christ, and behold all things are now new to us! “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold all things are become new. And all things are of God, Who hath reconciled us unto Himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that God was in Christ, not imputing their trespasses unto them, and hath committed us the Word of reconciliation.” Romans 5:17-19 The Anointing of the Holy Ghost has destroyed our old man, the old man that was nothing but sin, and we now walk in the newness of life that Jesus walks in! All things in our lives are now of God, just as the Holy Ghost teaches that they are in Romans 5. We have been crucified with Christ, and nevertheless we live, yet it is not us who lives, it is Christ within us Who lives. And greater is He that is within us, than He that is in the world! Today is the Day of our Salvation and now is our accepted time, and it is, because today we are one with Jesus’ resurrection and life!
