One With Christ
“You also have become dead to the law
through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another
—to Him who was raised from the dead,
that we should bear fruit to God.”
ROMANS 7:4
You may wonder how this union with Jesus was accomplished. I do not have
the answer to that, but I consider it to be so because God says it is
so. God placed us in Christ. I do not fully understand how He did this,
but I know that He did it, and I thank God for it. The Bible says that
“because of [God] you are in Christ Jesus” (1 Corinthians 1:30).
Disciples of Jesus are one with Christ because God has placed us there.
We are in Christ, and Christ is in us. We may not understand how this
can be so, but it is so. We are spiritually one with Christ. This
oneness, this union, this partnership and fellowship with Him is the
basis of our spiritual life and our walk with God.
