Re: A Covenant With God
We have a covenant of blood, my part is be be crucified with Christ, and "in" Christ.
I am to repent of my sins, be buried with him in baptism into he death, and walk in newness of life in the resurrection of His Spirit. I've traded my life in Adam for a new life in Christ, therefore I am bought with a price and am not my own. I'm the servant of Christ, He is my master whom I am to obey. Because my life is not my own, but His life, I now am seated with Christ in heavenly places, and the spiritual riches of Christ are now mine. In Christ I am well, whole, healed, delivered, and set free. The life that I now live is the life that Christ would live through me and my commision is to be Christ to a world lost in darkness. To feed the hungry, heal the sick, tell the good news, freely give of what I have received.
