Checking into His Presence... Do you serve Jesus? Can you boldly say you have given your life to God so that indeed your eternal kingdom is assured? Would you believe that God works steadily with those who have accepted Christ as their Lord and Saviour to make them be like Christ? No one can assume the position of being Christ-like without first allowing the flesh which encloses the Spirit to die and the Spirit to take precedence in their relationship with God. Romans 8: 4-8 says-"in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit." “Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God." Indeed you are in Christ, but of which lane are you? Maybe you are a camouflage of your actual position in Christ or simply a true disciple of Christ. Remember, if indeed you are not of Christ, you have become merely a caricature of the Name of Christ which you claim to represent. The sad thing is that only God knows those who are genuinely His; again, we shall also understand them by their fruits. “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
