CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST

"This wonderful life, resulting in the blended personality of the believer and the Son of God, is a true life. This is expressed in the text, 'Nevertheless I live' -- yes, live as I never lived before. When the apostle declares himself as to be dead to the world, he would not have us imagine that he was dead in the highest and best sense. No, he lived with a new force and vigor of life. It seemed to me that when I came to know Christ, I was just like a butterfly newly burst from the cocoon. I then began really to live. When a soul is startled by the thunder claps of conviction and afterwards receives pardon in Christ, it begins to live. The worldling says he wants to see life, and therefore plunges into sin! Fool that he is, he peers into the sepulcher to discover immortality.
The man who truly lives is the believer. Shall I become less active because I am a Christian? God forbid! Should I become less industrious, find fewer opportunities for the manifestation of my natural and spiritual energies? God forbid! If ever a man should be like a sword too sharp for the scabbard, with an edge that cannot be dulled, it should be the Christian. He should be like flames of fire burning his way. Live while you live. Let there be no frittering away of time. Live so as to
demonstrate that you possess the noblest form of life." Charles Haddon
