*DAILY DEW 13/FEBRUARY/2023*
*The Mark Of Crucified Believers*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me."* (2 Galatians 2:20 (BBE))
_Bible Insight:_
You think the message of 'next level', 'getting bigger', 'taking over' was what led the early church to sell their possessions and share among themselves? You think so? Think again!
When you feed on these self centered messages, you'd only live for self gratification, and not for Christ. It's time to teach believers to allow God's word 'take over' from self. The epistles aren't about 'next levels', they are about growing up in Christ. -- except and unless next level of growth in Christ!
There's a 'gospel' that's centred around human selfishness that appeals to many, but it is not the gospel of Christ. The focus is OFF learning Christ and denying self in order to live for and serve Him, rather it is focused on 'using Christ' to succeed in life. Quite appealing but far from the intent of the gospel.
MANY who embrace this will have testimonies of success with no testimonies of real spiritual growth and an increasing denial of self in order to serve Christ. The lines aren't as blurry, except one is really undiscerning.
_MEDITATION:_
*There is no greater success for the crucified believer except and until there is the success of Christ's life growing and taking over the old man completely* -- E.D.J.
