Being Found in Christ, having Christ as our Subjective Righteousness Lived out in us

As those who have the excellency of the knowledge of Christ, we desire to be found in Christ, not having our own righteousness but the righteousness of God, taking Christ as our subjective righteousness. Our pattern in the Lord is the apostle Paul; he used to be for the law and in the law, but […]

Like Paul, we have the Aspiration to Gain Christ and be Found in Christ by All Men

Paul’s desire was to be found in Christ, not having his own righteousness but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is out of God and based on faith (Phil. 3:9). In the past, Paul was found by everyone in the law; he pursued the righteousness that came out of the law, […]

Living in the Spirit to Overcome any Deadness and be Clothed in White Garments

To the one who overcomes in the church in Sardis the Lord promises to give him to be clothed in white garments, and He will not erase his name out of the book of life, and He will confess his name before His God and before His angels (Rev. 3:5). To have white garments means […]

man cannot be justified out of works of law but out of faith in Christ, in the organic union!

It is so easy to have a low appreciation and view of the truth of the gospel in its basic principle of the justification by faith.
