Dying to Live Kevin Deane

While believers face an onslaught of sin in modern media, in the workplace and at school, it can be difficult to live the Christian life. Surviving might be easy enough, but how do you live righteously in the middle of a world that throws sin at us from all sides? Because to be honest, sometimes it hard to have a heart that actually wants to live for God. God did not make us so we could go to church, avoid major sins and sit around doing nothing for Him. How do you live in Christ? I believe the secret is in understanding the death that leads to life. The Bible calls us to live on the cross. On that cold, inelegant, rough Roman device. There's nothing showy or beautiful about a cross - it only has one purpose: to kill people. You are called to live crucified. Being united in the death of Jesus is the only thing that will lead to life. Are you dying to live?
