"I have been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me and the life I now live in the flesh paradox there I no longer live and then he says the life I live there's some sense in which he's not living and Christ is living instead and another sense which oh I am living." [00:01:31]
"Since our old rebellious unbelieving selves died with Christ in union with him in his death we're made alive by the spirit to walk in newness of life Paul says and David is emphasizing that we think of this newness of life as Christ living through us so that all our life becomes a display of Christ." [00:02:27]
"For those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires so what dies in union with Christ is old passions and old destructive sinful Christ dishonouring desires that's how we show Christ now new desires his desires start to rule." [00:03:10]
"Far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ by which the world has been crucified to me and I have been crucified to the world so being crucified with Christ means that we are not any longer slaves of the world we're free we're not just echoing conform to mirroring the standards of the world." [00:03:38]
"This is how we live the life of Christ we live in victory over the sin that he died to defeat or here's the positive way of saying it in Romans 613 you have been brought from death to life so present your members that is your arms and legs and tongue present your members to God as instruments of righteousness." [00:04:24]
"Paul says thanks be to God who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession through us and through us spreads the fragrance the knowledge of the knowledge of him everywhere we are the aroma of Christ I think that's another way of saying our life is Christ when people spiritually smell our ethos our attitudes our actions." [00:05:31]
"Beholding the glory of the Lord are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another for this comes from the Lord who the spirit in other words the more we see Christ clearly in the word the more we are changed into his image and the more our life becomes his life for others to see." [00:06:22]
"Put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for the flesh to gratify his desires or Colossians 3:10 put on the new self which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator so Paul thinks of Christ as our new uniform insignia badge maybe put on Christ what we put on or wear it as a covering or a badge or insignia." [00:07:35]
"Galatians 2:20 says we live it by faith the life I now live I live by faith in Romans seven four says we live it by the spirit it goes like this it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me in the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God." [00:08:28]
"The conscious appropriation of the new life is by trusting Christ but then Romans 7 4 says you have died to the law through the body of Christ so that you may belong to another to him who has been raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God we have died to the law that held us captive." [00:08:51]
"Once we thought willpower law-keeping was the key to life but we died to that we died to the law in that sense and now the key is the holy spirit the spirit way and the way he's active in us is by faith this is the new way of the spirit so the sum of the matter is when we are saved." [00:09:19]
"Our old self unbelieving rebellious loving sin self dies with him our new self is created by the Spirit through faith and the image of that new self is Christ Christ himself from one degree of glory to the next so yes David yes don't waste his life don't waste Christ's life in you is good theology."
