Yes it is true that an unbelieving SINNER is someone who have not yet consciously and genuinely believed and received the SALVATION of JESUS CHRIST in this World. True! However, do you know that a SAINT (someone who have consciously and genuinely believed and received the Salvation of Jesus Christ in this World) is a believing SINNER, if he or she is not yet LIVING BY CHRIST and FOR CHRIST in this World? That is, after he or she has genuinely believed and received the salvation of Jesus Christ in this World? True! Take note, take heed!
Now, what does it means to LIVE BY CHRIST in this World?
It means to WALK with GOD, the way Jesus Christ walked with Him when He was physically on the Earth. This is because the Bible reveals that as HE (Jesus Christ) is, so are WE in this World. True! (1 John 4:17).
In other words,
1. It means as a LIVING SACRIFICE of Christ who is currently and physically in this World, to consciously, humbly and consistently submit your MIND to allow the Holy Spirit of CHRIST that is within you THINK through you based on the specific Word, Ways and Will of God in Christ for you in ALL issues that concerns you or your encounter par time in this World. True! Therefore, know and note that if you are NOT allowing Him, you are a believing SINNER who is ignorantly sinning against God unknowingly. True! Take note, take heed and REPENT now and LEARN the art of thinking by Christ. (Romans 8:1-13; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16).
2. It means as a LIVING SACRIFICE of Christ who is currently and physically in this World, to consciously, humbly and consistently submit your MOUTH (tongue) to the Holy Spirit of CHRIST that is within you to allow Him SPEAK through you based on the specific Word, Ways and Will of God in Christ for you in ALL issues that concerns you or your encounter par time in this World. True! Therefore, know and note that if you are NOT allowing Him, you are a believing SINNER who is ignorantly sinning against God unknowingly. True! Take note, take heed and REPENT now and LEARN the art of speaking by Christ. (Matthew 10:19,20; Luke 21:12-15; Romans 8:26-28).
3. It means as a LIVING SACRIFICE of Christ who is currently and physically in this World, to consciously, humbly and consistently submit your WILL to the Holy Spirit of CHRIST that is within you to allow Him ACT through you based on the specific Word, Ways and Will of God in Christ for you in ALL issues that concerns you or you encounter par time in this World. True! Therefore, know and note that if you are NOT allowing Him, you are a believing SINNER who is ignorantly sinning against God unknowingly. True! Take note, take heed and REPENT now and LEARN the art of doing by Christ. (Romans 12:1,2; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18; Romans 8:9-14; ; Colossians 3:16,17).
In fact, the HOLY SPIRIT of CHRIST that is within you is there to specifically and practically LIVE through you on the Earth. Therefore, It goes beyond the three dimensions listed above. True! As a LIVING SACRIFICE of Christ who is currently and physically in this World, the HOLY SPIRIT of CHRIST that is within you wants to SEE, HEAR, FEEL, LOVE, MAKE CHOICES, TAKE DECISIONS, WORSHIP, etc through you on daily basis based on the specific Word, Ways and Will of God in Christ for you in ALL issues that concerns you or you encounter par time in this World. True! Therefore, know and note that if you are NOT allowing Him, you are a believing SINNER who is ignorantly sinning against God unknowingly. True! Take note, take heed and REPENT now and LEARN the art of living by Christ. (1 Corinthians 2:9-16; Romans 8:9-28; John 4:23,24).
Can you boldly now say you are LIVING BY CHRIST in this World?
Like I previously mentioned in one of my posts, Practical CHRISTIANITY is the Living GOD in the PERSON of the HOLY SPIRIT of Christ in us, thinking, speaking and living through each of us in Christ in this World as we individually ALLOW Him par time par our situation. True! (2 Corinthians 6:14-18).
You shortchanged yourself in Christ in this side of life, if you do not LEARN to consciously, humbly and consistently LIVE BY CHRIST daily. True! Take note, take heed!
Now, what does it means to LIVE FOR CHRIST in this World?
By the grace of God, tomorrow we will look at what it means to live for Christ. Yes!
God bless you.
