Only as we are made more and more aware of our sin (you are the man), and convinced more and more that we have died to that sin (blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity), will sin then die in our lives as we rely less and less on the self and more and more on “to live is Christ.”
Once an enemy, now a child of the King. Once outside, now inside. Once a dead dog, now “to live is Christ.”
Through our union with Christ we are invited to share the legacy of “to live is Christ.”
“To live is Christ” has made us, God’s church, the tent of David. God’s presence now dwelling in us and through us.
Now “to live is Christ” is to be a mini-messiah. Anointed by the Spirit of God with the life of God, living from the love and power of our true Messiah each day.
