Today we talked about the miracle of our union with Christ beginning with the death of the old self - crucified with Christ, dead and buried - and resurrected into a new creation, fully clothed in the perfect righteousness of Christ. We covered the difference between religeous mindsets that would have us apply rules of "do's & don'ts" which try to fix up the old nature instead of considering that nature dead and yielding to the new nature we received from Christ.
Key texts were 2 Chronicles 16:9, 2 Corinthians 5:16-17, Galatians 2:19-20, Colossians 3:1-3, Galatians 3:1-3, Philippians 3:9, Philippians 3:12-14
