Christ Lives in Me (Really?)

“Christ lives in me.” In this sermon, Dan explores the impact this declaration made by Paul to the church in Galatia, and he looks at what it means for us today.  Is Christ living in you? Really??

God’s expectation is not that we would achieve, but that we would receive….receive His Spirit, and allow Him to work through us.

All scriptures below are from the NIV:

Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Colossians 1:27
To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Colossians 2:13
When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you[a] alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins…

Romans 8:1
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus…

1 Corinthians 6:19
Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own…

But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.

For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
