It's About Him ... in me

Christ lives in me
through me

All that is Jesus
is mine
when I admit to God I am a sinner
when I believe Jesus Christ is God's Son
when I confess Jesus Christ is my personal Lord and Savior

I am His

and
It is
His patience
His love
His holiness
His faithfulness
His purity
His goodness (His motives)
His peace
His kindness
His gentleness
His self-control

that is in me

I have been made one with the Lord Jesus
I am dead to sin.
Because I am His,
the evil that lurks everywhere
is not for me to pursue.

The Lord set me free to walk in His Spirit.

"and those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires." - Galatians 5:24

He lives
He lives
in me! He lives

What do others see ... Does Jesus' life show itself to you through me?

"If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit." - Galatians 5:25

or do others see only themselves in my life:

their hate
their jealousy
their selfishness
their envy
their irritation
their lies
their anger
their deceit
their defiance
their contempt
their discontentment
their worry
their pride
their disobedience

Jesus is The Way, The Truth and The Life for all of us. There is no other way, no other truth, no other life.

"...you shall love your neighbor as yourself" Jesus tells us in Matthew 22:39.

"But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!" - Galatians 5:15

"...not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another." - Galatians 5:26
