PRAYER
I know who I am; I’m not of this
world. I’m a new creation; I’ve
come out of death, and I’m
perfected in Christ Jesus. Christ
is alive in me—spirit, soul, and
body—in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Newness Of Life In Christ
Our theme scripture is quite outstanding. It begins
by letting us know that we’ve been baptized into
“Jesus Christ,” and not just “Christ.” The latter means being
put in the body of Christ, but the former makes it so strong so
that you can better understand when the Bible says, “For we
are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones”
(Ephesians 5:30). It doesn’t get any better than that.
You were baptized into Jesus Christ, meaning that
you’re lost in Him, immersed in Him. You’ve become
inseparably one with Him that you can’t be distinguished
from Him: “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1
Corinthians 6:17).
Now, the second part that’s even more thrilling is the
fact that we weren’t just baptised unto Him in His death, but
were also raised up together with Him to a newness of life.
The Bible says, “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). The Apostle Paul talks about
the death of Christ, but there was also the resurrection, which
is the victory and the glory.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ made Christianity possible. Christianity didn’t begin with His death, for His
death didn’t give us life; however, His resurrection ushered us
into a newness of life. His death paid for our sins, but didn’t
give us a new life. That’s why salvation isn’t the result of the
confession or affirmation of His death, but of His resurrection:
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and
shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the
dead, thou shalt be saved” (Romans 10:9).
There’s a newness of life in Christ; there’s a new
consciousness, with the understanding that as Christ was
raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so,
you also should walk in newness of life. That means, reckon
yourself to have come out of spiritual death. You have a new
life now; the old nature is dead; your past doesn’t exist; you’re
a new creation in Christ Jesus; a superior creation! Hallelujah!
