CHRIST LIVES IN YOU ~ The Hope of Glory-! (Col. 1:27) NewChristMan.com

“To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this Mystery, which is Christ in you, the Hope of Glory” (Col. 1:27)

There's a phrase in scripture that most Christians have read dozens of times, but never truly understood. It's a mystery that Paul called the greatest revelation ever given to the church. And yet, after 2,000 years, most believers still treat it as a nice metaphor instead of a supernatural reality that changes everything about who you are and what you can do. That phrase is "Christ in you, the hope of glory." And what it actually means, what it reveals about your nature as a born again believer is so radical, so transformative that if you truly grasped it, you would never live in defeat again. You would never question your authority again. You would never accept the limitations that religion has placed on you. Because once you understand what happened when Christ came to live in you, once you see the union that took place, once you comprehend that you are not just forgiven and going to heaven, but that you have become one spirit with Christ himself, everything changes. This is not just deeper theology. This is the foundation of your identity.

This is why Paul could say in Galatians 2:20, "I am crucified with Christ. Nevertheless, I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me." He's not speaking poetically. He’s declaring a spiritual reality. He’s saying that the person he was before salvation died. And the person who lives now is in-dwelt by Christ to the degree that his very life is Christ's life flowing through him. And that's not just Paul's experience. That's every believer's reality. Christ in you is not Christ with you. Not Christ helping you, not Christ blessing you from heaven. It's Christ actually living in you, united with your spirit, making you a partaker of his divine nature according to second Peter 1:4.

Most preachers never teach about Christ in you, what happened when you were born again, what it means that Christ lives in you, and how this truth transforms the way you think, pray, and live. This revelation has been lost in the modern church. This is the mystery hidden for ages but now revealed. And once you see it, you’ll never be the same.

Colossians 1:26-27 says, "Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints, to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." Notice Paul calls this a mystery. Something that was hidden but is now revealed. Something so glorious, so rich that it was beyond human understanding until God chose to make it known. And what is this mystery? Christ in you. Not Christ for you. Not Christ above you. Christ in you. But what does that actually mean? Most Christians think it means Jesus is with them spiritually. That he's present in their lives. that he guides and helps them. While that's true, it's not the fullness of what scripture is revealing. Christ in you means that when you were born again, Christ came to live in your spirit. Not metaphorically.

Actually, your spirit which was dead in trespasses and sins according to Ephesians 2:1 was made alive with Christ's life. You became one spirit with him according to 1 Corinthians 6:17 which says, "But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit." One spirit, not two spirits in fellowship. One spirit, your spirit and Christ's spirit, united in a way that cannot be separated. E.W Kenyon understood this truth with stunning clarity. He wrote, "The new birth is not simply forgiveness of sins. The new birth is the actual impartation of God’s nature into your spirit. Christ comes to live in you. His life becomes your life. His nature becomes your nature. You are not just a saved sinner. You are a new creation with the very life of God flowing through your spirit. Until this becomes revelation and not just information, you will continue to live far below what God intended for you.
