The Christ-Seed ‘Within You’

Seeing that God, in Christ, as “the Spirit of life,” really lives within believers should bring an explosion of further revelations, joy, appreciation, and thankfulness to God our Father.

“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ In You, the hope of glory:” (Colossians 1:27)

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)

The Apostle Paul himself had just such a “revelation” of Christ in him, of which he wrote; “when God… was pleased 16to REVEAL His Son IN ME…” (Gal. 1:15-16a).

You might ask yourself, ‘Have I had a revelation of Christ living within me?’ Such a revelation and realization will change your Christian life forever. Such people then know that they are first and foremost a literal born child of God the Father (Rom. 8:16).

Paul wrote of this new living relationship wherein we as believers are No More A Servant (of religion) but A SON” (Gal. 4:7). Having received this revelation, we don’t ‘work for the Lord as His servants’ in order to gain or to earn His favor... we’ve already been blessed with all spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus” (Eph. 1:3).

Our good works now proceed out of a pure heart, that is pure in motive; out of a newly found love and appreciation for the Lord’s unconditional never-ending love and grace toward us.

In this way of new life by the Father’s “Seed, which is Christ” now in us, we can see that we are pregnant with Christ being “formed” in our soul’s mind, emotion and will.

Only father’s give life physically, while mothers bear and treasure that life unto to completion.

One day, in the Rapture, we will have come to the full expression of the glorious seeded life of Christ within us. Paul wrote of his frustration with the Galatians who had left grace and faith to go back under “the Law.” “… I (Paul) travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,(Gal. 4:19).

We as regenerated believers who have Christ in us (Rom. 8:9-10) have Jesus’ resurrection life within us, spiritually conceived of God the Father... via His “Seed, which is Christ” (1Peter 1:23, Gal. 3:16).

Just as a conceived child grows, without effort, in the confines of his mother’s womb, we grow, without effort, simply by our spirit-union with His “Spirit of life” WITHIN US. Just as a fetus without effort shares the riches (nutrients) of the mother’s blood we also share in the riches of His life within us. Just as the mother’s blood takes away all the waste from the baby’s blood, we enjoy that Christ has taken away ‘the wasteby His shed blood of the cross and His forgiveness of all our sins.

Though our “old” sin-nature, as “the sons of Adam” (Rom. 6:6-7) once reigned in us by our fallen sin-laden flesh, we now grow in the knowledge and grace of the Lord… being renewed in souls, as He is being formed in our mind, emotion, and will.’

“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward (body) man perish, yet the inward (soul) man is renewed day by day.” (2 Corinthians 4:16)

The power of the life of the “Seed,” which is Christ in us, is all we need for successful daily living... in peace and rest.
