"As it was meant to be!"

"Christ in me, the hope of Glory." (Colossians 1:27)

There is a major difference between New Testament Christianity and Christianity as it is lived by the average person in the average church in America today. To modern day Christians, the Christian life is primarily a creed to be lived through effort and daily performance. To the New Testament Christian, it was an experience of reality something just as real as the air they breathed.

Contemporary Christians are likely to reduce the Christian faith to a moral code or a pattern for life. It is an external reality that is to be applied to their life by personal choice and effort. To the people in the New Testament churches It was plainly the invasion of their lives by a new quality of life. They do not hesitate to describe this as Christ living in them. (J.B. Phillips, Letters to Young Churches)

J.B. Phillips continued, Mere moral reformation will hardly explain the transformation and the exuberant vitality of these men's lives--even if we could prove a motive for such reformation, and certainly the world around offered little encouragement to the early Christians. We are practically driven to accept their own explanation, which is that their little human lives had through Christ, been linked up with the very Life of God.

The indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit making the Divine nature of Jesus Christ present and real in our daily experience is the power that makes our Christian experience unique. Paul wrote, "Christ in you, the hope of glory." This is real Christianity.

"As it was meant to be!"

Which side of the Cross are you living on?

Bill Johnson reminds us that "Christianity is life on the resurrection side of the Cross." Christianity is not intended to be about sin management; it is meant to be about manifesting the life of the son of God in our flesh. You and I are constructing a soul that will live with us for eternity and the model for that construction is Jesus Christ Himself. We are to become like our King...not act like Jesus, but become like Jesus. Our internal reality will become our extreme reality. We are partakers of the "Divine nature" (2 Peter 1:4) and we are being transformed into the likeness of Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:18). How is your building project coming along? I know Jesus is going to be excited to see what you present to Him.
