Union with Christ - AMAZING!

October 20, 2017
GCT:   It has ben difficult to get past Ephesians 2:5-6, The Father, “made us alive together with Christ - by grace you have been saved - and raised up together with Him and seated us together with Him in the heavenly places in Jesus Christ.”  All of these verbs are past tense.  This reality stretches the human mind to comprehend all the implications in our present daily life that we are UNITED IN CHRIST.  God has taken His Spirit and has united Himself to our earthly bodies and our spirit in Christ in the heavenly places presently - God’s Spirit united to a clod of clay.  God has a real and personal union with us in the heavenly places and delights in this relationship and our benefits are ENDLESS and ETERNAL.

I hope to see you Sunday as we dig into these truths more deeply and see what this means for us today as live in this place called Hampstead.

Sunday Night we will ministering to our friends at Woodbury Nursing Home at 6:30pm.

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

United In Christ - Steve
