This Christmas season, when the attention of the world is drawn to Christ, we have an opportunity to realign, refresh and recalibrate our focus on the Grand Personage of the universe.  Our most treasured possession is not that we are of Christ, or that we know about Christ, but that we are in Christ.  This seemingly small distinction grows larger than life itself when we search the Scriptures.  The entirety of our Christian inheritance is positioned on our placement in Christ.  We are:

 Alive in Christ

Established in Christ

Justified in Christ

Made nigh to God in Christ

New creatures in Christ

Partakers of the promise in Christ

Perfect in Christ

Purposed in Christ

Sanctified in Christ

Seated in Christ

Triumphant in Christ

 

We have:

 

All things in Christ

Consolation in Christ

Faith in Christ

Freedom in Christ

Goodness in Christ

Grace in Christ

Hope in Christ

Liberty in Christ

Life in Christ

Love in Christ

Peace in Christ

Redemption in Christ

Rejoicing in Christ

Salvation in Christ

Truth in Christ

Worship in Christ

 

Let us remember that we will only find our heart’s desire in the Christ of Christmas. 

Love to you all.  Have a blessed Christmas.
