I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death, so that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead!
Philippians 3:10-11 NLT
To know and experience the mighty power that raised Jesus from the dead required us to suffer and die. Yikes! Are we prepared for this? Is it real death or just death to self? We could start with death to self.
Dying to.self requires we lay down selfish ambition, pride, desires that are outside of Christ. It may result in us being maligned, misunderstood and rejected. We must choose. Amen!
