- Rendering Your Body Useless To Carnalities.
It seems the only way to live in todays world is never going to change for all believers in Christ Jesus. The only way to mortify or crucify the deeds of the body according to the Laws of God is through the Spirit of Christ.
When God said He alone could conquer sin, All His creation believed Him. But when it came to reality, for He had to become first of all exactly like men, which He did through Christ, none could believe their our eyes! They and we kept doubting, saying "Can God really become like us?!"... Yes He did! And He did it all in and through Christ Jesus.
- The Same Spirit and Life.
Now, the same God in Christ Jesus is in us today by His Spirit. Therefore, through the Spirit of Christ, which is the Spirit of God Himself, God is now able to do and do, over and over again, all that He did in and through Christ in us today!
If we all acknowledge the presence of the Holy Spirit of God and His Christ IN us, through the same Spirit we will accomplish all Christ was able to do. "But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us Wisdom, and Righteousness, and Sanctification, and Redemption:" (1Co 1:30)
Are you Redeemed?
When Sin is crushed, the gateway to the Abrahamic blessing is opened, for Gal 3:13-14 says that:
"Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." (Gal 3:13-14). The whole blessing of Abraham can only come to the redeemed through the promised Spirit of Christ.
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law." (1Cor 15:55-56). To continue to live by yourself, you can NEVER fulfill all the Laws without breaking any. To live through the Spirit of Christ, Who through Christ has crushed sin and swallowed up death, you're assured of fulfilling every bit of the law 100% of the time and at all times, AS YOU REMAIN IN CHRIST.
