In Christ || In Him Realities

In today’s podcast we begin talking about the “In Christ” realities which Paul speaks about in The Epistles. After a man is saved he needs to learn Christ. Meaning he needs to know and grow in his new identity which is the new man created after the likeness of Christ. Growth as we all know, is a product of knowledge. We say we are growing or have grown as we acquire knowledge and insight into what we knew nothing of previously. It is the same after the new birth. A believer must grow in the knowledge of Christ hence Bro Peter writes in 2Pet 3:18 “But grow in grace, and the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory now and forever Amen.” Christian growth/New creation growth is a product of adequate feeding on the Word of God daily and being fed with appropriate Christian sermons and materials. One will thereby discover who they really are now, what God did in him at salvation, what is expected of the believer now that he is in Christ and how he ought to conduct his life now. We must not be ignorant Christian so we don’t become preys for the deceit of the devil. The In Christ realities are so important for the man who will be bold in Christ, serve the Lord effectively and live out his life in Christ maximally. Below are some of the Scriptures you can begin with. Write them out and use them when you pray knowing that it speaks of you right now. I pray the Lord grants each and everyone of us more understanding as we strive daily to grow in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and hence discovering who we really are Amen. Ephesians 1:3- 13, Ephesians 2:5,6,10,18,19. Other scriptural references: 2 Peter 3:18, Romans 8:9-10
