Children of God Possess the Very Life of Jesus Christ

This is your salvation - Jesus Himself is your life since you are a child of the Father born of the Spirit by grace through faith in the Son. Brothers and sisters in Christ, encourage each other with these truths. Share with the lost their need for Jesus' life to live within them: "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me" (Galatians 2:20).

The gospel has never stopped at how bad a person is, but continued to reveal how dead they are, dead in trespasses and sins (Colossians 2:13). That's why the only genuine full gospel proclaims two eternal truths: 1) Christ dying, paying for our sins and the sins of the whole world, and 2) Christ giving us His resurrected life as our very own life (Romans 5:10).

You see from God's perspective life requires possessing the very life of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, you and I have been born again not of corruptible seed, the image of Adam, but by incorruptible seed of the Holy Spirit placing us into the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:13).
