I No Longer Live
Basic Gospel
Published on 04/13/2017
The resurrection of Jesus Christ guarantees your eternal security. Because he lives forever, so will you. But his resurrection also gives you a new way to live. In this new way of life, sin and death can no longer have their way with you. As Paul wrote, sin is no longer your master. Your old self that was under sin’s control was crucified with Christ, dead and buried. So count yourself dead to sin and fully alive to God, living through the power of grace. Say along with Paul, “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
