“Crucified With Christ”

Key Verse

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20).

Text —Galatians 2:16-21

Message

Evangelist Billy Graham once questioned: “Why is it that the Cross has become the symbol of Christianity?” Answering, he said, “It is because at the Cross, Jesus purchased our redemption and provided a righteousness which we could not ourselves earn.” Christ, by His death at the Cross of Calvary willingly went through the horrors of death to deliver sinful man from sin inherited through Adam and Eve. To be crucified with Christ denotes our entire consecration to Him. It signifies our belief in Christ’s crucifixion as payment for our sin penalty, and our reliance on His power to live lives pleasing to God. Are you crucified with Christ?

Dear friend, it is only those who are born again that can be crucified with Christ. Are you? If you are not, it is possible right now. Sincerely repent of your sins, confess them and surrender your life to Christ. On the way to Damascus, Paul surrendered life to Christ before he could later say, “I am crucified with Christ.” You can live the crucified life wherever you are, be it school, home or in the neighbourhood.
