Now, are you? They are, because you are and who is telling you? This is one of those great Christian words or phrases that sounds oh so very serious, sincere and pious, is not it? You probably think: "Oh yes, this is more like it, I knew that I was enjoying too much real life is what Christianity is nothing sad, alas, his head bowed, leaning on the shoulder and face - I really need to live my life if I was crucified - where is my sandwich plates'They sent a doormat Christian' front and rear, where the sackcloth and ashes, and perhaps my doctor gave me a pill that makes me half-dead, I know, is where the local monastery, because all the fun I'm going to sign !!??"
Are or were new to the belief that the sentence and you were listening to the men of the Christian religion and who is playing and then told to go and ready to "The Crucified Life", what thoughts would that generatein your mind - emotion or fear? If crops and should be encouraged to feel, and it will fill you with joy and happiness or would feel more like a steel cap boot was hit in the groin? I know what I would have felt because I was sitting in front of such men, men who have taught this type of message, so I know what it feels like steel covered boot. I am not exaggerating when I say very clearly that only a miracle from the Lord Jesus Christ, whoI'm still alive, because he was the message that saved me from the clutches of these blasphemers and dogs with bad news, "the crucified life."
Now I know some of you out there are junk sold on this crucified life, I want to ask a question: When he heard this, he was part of a sermon or a book or an article? If so, after listening to this sermon or reading this sentence you have to go home and check to see that in the Scripturesif it is right? The reason I ask this because the words "crucified" and "life" appear together only once in a verse of the Bible - a verse, but not like the phrase "Life crucified 'man. This phrase is'. .? Now, this alone should sound alarm bells for us all because Because, because a complete belief system was all about that phrase, which, as I said, is built from this verse of Scripture:
Gal 2:20 I am crucified withChrist: nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth 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 gave Himself for me.
First, we see that the words "Life Crucifix not appear together ', so if it is right or wrong, that is to use blogs. This is why it was and still is a man made in the sentence to be made. This is something than inTraditional Christianity is really like to do - they love their jargon. You know what I mean, I laughed as irrelevant to their use of these expressions, the first in some of my previous article. Ok, back to Galatians, we can see where, after the King James Bible says that Paul who was crucified with Christ - this time, but when we make the greek you find it in the past:
To-anointed (Christ) Iimpaled together (I have crucified) I'm still alive, still alive in my anointed (Christ) who are still in the flesh I live by faith (faith) I'm living the son of God, the one to love me, and beyond to give (task) on me.
Ok, so it is past, so what you ask for? Well, if you can not see the impact of the difficult distinction here, then you are on very unstable ground really. Paul says in the past, becauseChrist was crucified. When? Why, of course, for the baptism that if all believers to die with Jesus Christ, as if crucified with him in the watery grave of baptism pool. This is the time of our lives when we commit ourselves to Him as our friend and brother, but what happens next? Paul tells us, but I'm living. Now this expression, if the present application would mean I am in a continuous process of the crucified Christ and I am.Hello, excuse me, how does this work and it sounds like a nightmare - a living hell? I will not beat about the bush here, as always fights for this hack, the crucified died or death is imminent, can not be different. In both cases it is expressing in pretty bad shape, say, and the man insurance is to review your policy to see if he can fiddle his way out of paying up.
If on the other hand, we begin to use the words of Paul in the past, and to make sense."I am crucified with Christ, however, are still" Everything that Paul is doing here is to explain what happens in Baptism: we die in the watery grave, but life from the water for a new life in Christ and Christ in us. That is basically what Paul goes on to say: "Not I, but Christ liveth 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 himself for me." KeepSpecial Note: 1) Jesus Christ lives in Paul. 2) The life that Paul lived a life is not crucified, but a life of faith in the Son of God This means that it is rich, full life of life is not a means of living or dead, completely dead, like a crucified man. Also note that Paul lives by the Lord Jesus Christ of faith, their faith and proves once again that salvation has nothing to do with us and our efforts orInput.
Finally, here is a writing that "The crucified life 'Brigade does not know: John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy: I came that they may have life and that more should have plenty more. This verse is not to amass huge fortunes and richer in material things, even if some members of the church to be blessed in this way. This verse is about his life full of joy and happiness, as our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, what is also going through various tests with it and learn to develop their count as joyful. Not easy, but anything is possible if you keep your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ:
James 1:02 My brethren, count a great joy when her studies in different (tests or studies). (In parenthesis)
