ABIDE IN CHRIST by Andrew Murray

[AJ 'AJ ROK' WOODSON]

Christian, fear not to claim God's promises to make you holy. Listen not to the suggestion that the corruption of your old nature would render holiness an impossibility. In your flesh dwells no good thing, and that flesh, though crucified with Christ, is not yet dead, but will continually seek to rise and lead you to evil. But the father is the Husbandman. He has grafted the life of Christ on your life. That holy life is mightier than your evil life; under the watchful care of the Husbandman, that new life can keep down the working evil life within you. The evil nature is there, with its unchanged tendency to rise up and show itself. But the new nature is there too, the living Christ, your sanctification, is there, and through Him all powers can be sanctified as they rise into life, and be made to bear fruit to the glory of the Father.
And now, if you would live a holy life, abide in christ your sanctification. Look upon Him as the Holy One of God, made man that He might communicate to us the holiness of God. Listen when the scripture teaches that there is within you a new nature, a new man, created in Christ Jesus in righteousness and true holiness. Remember that this holy nature which is in you is sigularly fitted for living a holy life and performing all holly duties, as much so as the old nature is doing evil.
