I repent for having ever come back here.
So long, and please remember...
The gospel is: God giving us what we don't deserve, which we accept without condition, and are justified, because we believe what God has done for us, through Jesus Christ shedding His blood on the cross, and having been raised from the dead, we are saved by His life.
Salvation is: Having been saved by His life, we no longer live in the flesh, and our life is hidden with Christ in God. We have been circumcised from our flesh, which is our old self, and have become new creations and are sealed for the day of the redemption of our bodies, when we will put on imperishable bodies, and shall forever be with the Lord.
The life of the believer: As we have come to Christ, we walk in Him.
How? By getting what we don't deserve, we walk by believing what God has already done for us through Christ. Our minds are renewed through the work of the Holy Spirit & the discipline of God's kindness that changes our minds about who we are in Christ, which is: Holy, righteous, perfected, sanctified, justified, blameless, children of God, who are free from the Law, free from sin, wrath, & death. We have peace with God, and we no longer walk in the flesh, in darkness, or out of fellowship with God. We are totally dependent on Him to carry us through till the end. We are always willing to share the hope that is within us, which is the love of God that has been poured out in our hearts, and has removed all fear of punishment, and judgement; for Christ has taken it all for us and them.
Colossians 2:6-11
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ. For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority; and in Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ;
Gal 2:20
"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and delivered Himself up for me.
Grace & Peace...
