Christ in Us
Living within you is the Christ who floods you with the expectation of glory! This mystery of Christ, embedded within us, becomes a heavenly treasure chest of hope filled with the riches of glory for his people, and God wants everyone to know it! Christ is our message! We preach to awaken hearts and bring every person into the full understanding of truth. It has become my inspiration and passion in ministry to labor with a tireless intensity, with his power flowing through me, to present to every believer the revelation of being his perfect one in Jesus Christ.
Colossians 1:27-28 TPT
This is the apostolic heart. Our desire as leaders is for the exaltation of Christ in the human body. We want to see every member of the congregation experience Christ in them. Christ is embedded in us. The purpose of meditation, preaching and teaching is to awaken the sleeping giant within.
When we focus the believer on Christ in them not the sin in them. We position the believer to focus on the provision or righteousness. They are enabled to live purely because they are aware Christ is in them.
Don’t you know that your bodies belong to Christ as his body parts? Should one presume to take the members of Christ’s body and make them into members of a harlot? Absolutely not! Aren’t you aware of the fact that when anyone sleeps with a prostitute he becomes a part of her, and she becomes a part of him? For it has been declared: The two become a single body. But the one who joins himself to the Lord is mingled into one spirit with him. This is why you must keep running away from sexual immorality. For every other sin a person commits is external to the body, but immorality involves sinning against your own body.
1 Corinthians 6:15-18 TPT
When we realize Christ in us we will not join our members to other lovers. We are mingled into one Spirit with the Lord through our baptism into Christ. We are in him and He is in us.
