Bury the Dead!

June 27, 2009

Are you finished with living your life through addiction selfishly, satisfying every appetite, every desire…no matter who it hurts or what it costs?  Are you done with living your life in conflict with God’s heart and purposes for you?

Good!

If that “old man” addiction is truly dead, than it must be buried: put away forever.

But, this burial is not like any you have known to date.  This burial has the promise of a ressurection to a “new man:” a man who is “in Christ.”

“If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his ressurection” – Romans 6:5
