For me, I have found that the secret to a victorious Christian life is embodied in these words, "I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless, I live. Yet, not I, but Christ lives in me. This life I live in the body I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me." Gal. 2:20 (KJV). When we make a decision to accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, a mighty miracle takes place. Our spirits - that part of us that can have a relationship with God, our Creator - Once dead in trespasses and sin.... wakes up! Jesus - in that moment - comes to live in our hearts. And when we get up off our knees we are a new creation in Christ for we have truly been "born again!" This is what gives us the freedom to experience true freedom in Christ.
