Our Death-His Life

Colossians 3:3 "For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God".
Does your life confess Christ before men? Does the life you live world bear witness that Jesus is the Christ the Son of the living God? Does it tell a dying world there is a Savior who loves all and who can save all. Does your life bear witness that Jesus Christ is the power of God unto salvation?

As believers we are dead to sin, we are hid with Christ in a new life.What does this mean?  It means that God counts us hid in the resurrection and the life of Christ.When Christ arose, He arose to a new life, not to his old life. He died to the old life once and for all. Therefore, when the believer is said to be hid in Christ, it means that God counts the believer risen with Christ. God counts the believer as risen to a new life as he has died to the old life. When you are hid in Christ, Christ is the only life that God sees as living. Christ is your life in the eyes of God, the life which you live you now live through Christ who gave himself for you. You are a living sacrifice as you have died and the life you now live is a life hid in Christ. He is your life

We shall surrender our life totally to Christ, after all we are dead, and the new life is hid with Christ  in God. Let us walk in your newness of Life.
