We have a Body prepared by Christ!

When He cometh into the world, He saith,… A body hast thou prepared me.

Heb 10:5 (KJV)

   This word of Christ must be adopted by each of His followers. Nothing will help us to live in this world and keep ourselves unspotted but the Spirit that was in Christ, that looked upon His body as prepared by God for His service; that looks upon our body as prepared by Him too, that we might offer it to Him. Like Christ, we too have a body in which the Holy Spirit dwells. Like Christ, we too must yield out body, with every member, every power, every action, to fulfil His will, to be offered up to Him, to glorify Him. Like Christ, we must prove in our body that we are holy to the Lord. –Andrew Murray

To Lieve to me is Christ

To me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Phil 1:21 (KJV)

   Live in Christ, and you are in the suburbs of heaven. There is but a thin wall between you and the land of praises. You are within one hour’s sailing of the shore of the new Canaan. –William Rutherford

We are Called to Live a New Life

Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Romans 6:4 (KJV)

   That is the life we are called upon to live, and that is the life it is our privilege, for God never gives us a call without its being a privilege, and He never gives us the privilege to come up higher and higher into the realities and glories of the resurrection life, knowing that your life is hid with Christ in God. Shake yourself loss of every incumbrance, turn your back on every defilement, give yourself over like clay to the hands of the potter, that He may stamp upon you the fullness of His own resurrection glory, that you, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, may be changed from glory to glory as by the Spirit of the Lord. –W. Hay Aitken
