- 00:04:21.684 --> 00:04:24.554
- But the bible says that when we receive christ, we become
- 00:04:24.620 --> 00:04:27.657
- But the bible says that when we receive christ, we become brand new creations; old things
- 00:04:27.724 --> 00:04:29.592
- We receive christ, we become brand new creations; old things pass away, and all things become

- 00:04:34.030 --> 00:04:35.865
- New, and we are transferred to being in christ. now, trying to think
- 00:04:35.932 --> 00:04:38.067
- Of an example of what it's like
- 00:04:38.134 --> 00:04:40.303
- Of an example of what it's like to be in christ, you can't
- 00:04:40.370 --> 00:04:41.604
- Of an example of what it's like to be in christ, you can't think of a good one.
- 00:04:41.671 --> 00:04:42.472
- To be in christ, you can't think of a good one. but here's the best one
- 00:04:42.538 --> 00:04:45.174
- Think of a good one. but here's the best one i can come up with.
- 00:04:45.241 --> 00:04:46.976
- But here's the best one i can come up with. if you're an ice cube
- 00:04:47.043 --> 00:04:48.144
- I can come up with. if you're an ice cube and christ is a glass of water,
- 00:04:48.211 --> 00:04:50.947
- If you're an ice cube and christ is a glass of water, and you're put in the water,
- 00:04:51.013 --> 00:04:54.751
- And christ is a glass of water, and you're put in the water, you're in that water.
- 00:04:54.817 --> 00:04:56.786
- And you're put in the water, you're in that water. so we are uprooted out
- 00:04:56.853 --> 00:05:00.590
- You're in that water. so we are uprooted out of that family we were in,
- 00:05:00.656 --> 00:05:03.793
- So we are uprooted out of that family we were in, and we're replanted
- 00:05:03.860 --> 00:05:05.495
- Of that family we were in, and we're replanted in christ jesus.
- 00:05:05.561 --> 00:05:06.596
- And we're replanted in christ jesus. so that i'm in christ,
- 00:05:06.662 --> 00:05:08.431
- In christ jesus. so that i'm in christ, now as that ice cube melts,
- 00:05:08.498 --> 00:05:11.334
- So that i'm in christ, now as that ice cube melts, it just becomes part
- 00:05:11.401 --> 00:05:13.736
- Now as that ice cube melts, it just becomes part of the whole.
- 00:05:13.803 --> 00:05:15.671
- It just becomes part of the whole. and so for all intents
- 00:05:15.738 --> 00:05:18.307
- Of the whole. and so for all intents and purposes, you're
- 00:05:18.374 --> 00:05:20.343
- And so for all intents and purposes, you're in christ and he's in you.
- 00:05:20.410 --> 00:05:22.078
