Christ Lives In Me


Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. 

How do you think you can live for Christ on your own? You can't, you never could and never will. "Christ liveth in me . . ."

When we believe in Christ, He will sanctify us -- set us apart -- by His blood and for His service and glory. It's not automatic. We must die to ourselves every day and allow Him to use us.

But sometimes we sin. We act ugly. We aren't perfect. Thank God for grace.

Sanctification requires a persistent yielding to God, confessing our sins and believing that He will do His work in us.
