Re: Fellowship in Christ's Death

If you want to enter into full fellowship with Christ in His death, and know the full deliverance from self, humble yourself.... Accept every humiliation, look upon every fellow man who tries or vexes you as a means of grace to humble you....Let us gladly glory and take pleasure in weakness (2 Cor 12:9-10) in all that can humble us and keep us low....We will find that the deepest humility is the secret of the truest happiness, of a joy that nothing can destroy. --Andrew Murray

And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong. (2 Cor 12:9-10)

Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. (Col 3:2-5)

"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives 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. (Gal 2:20) (VW)
