2 1 Corinthians 2: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

3 1 Corinthians 2: For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

4 1 Corinthians 2: But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

5 Romans 16: Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, 26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:

6 Colossians 1:27

7 Colossians 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

8 Introduction A. God created and formed man as a tri-unity with a body, soul, and spirit. Isaiah 43:7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. Genesis 2:7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

9 Introduction Ecclesiastes 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. Hebrews 4:12a For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit

10 Introduction B. God manifest in the flesh is essential for us to fully experience salvation from the penalty of sin C. Christ in us saves us from the limited power of indwelling sin D. The mystery of rapture empowers us to live in anticipation of being eternally delivered from the presence of sin

11 Introduction E. God's created triune man was so that we could become a living temple of the triune God 1. The Holy Spirit lives in us 1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

12 Introduction E. God's created triune man was so that we could become a living temple of the triune God cont d 2. Jesus Christ, God s son, lives in us Colossians 3:11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

13 Introduction E. God's created triune man was so that we could become a living temple of the triune God cont d 3. God the Father lives in us Ephesians 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

14 Introduction Why Should I Care? 2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

15 Introduction F. This mystery is realized and experienced through the indwelling Holy Spirit John 14: And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. 18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. 20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

16 Introduction F. This mystery is realized and experienced through the indwelling Holy Spirit 1. He allows us to grasp spiritual truth (1 Corinthians 2:7, 10-13) 2. He confirms our faith (2 Corinthians 13:5) 3. He allows Christ to dwell in our hearts Ephesians 3:16-19

17 Introduction Ephesians 3: That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

18 Four Places Where The Glory Of God Dwelt

19 I. Five Things That Christ In Us Performs A. Begins a transformation Galatians 4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you, Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 6:13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

20 I. Five Things That Christ In Us Performs B. Empowers Me To Live Righteously Romans 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 1 Corinthians 6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. I Have To Decide If I am Going To Feed My Spirit or Flesh

21 I. Five Things That Christ In Us Performs C. Essential to submitting to the Lordship of Christ Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Christ in me establishes my intimate relationship with God

22 I. Five Things That Christ In Us Performs D. Needed for victory over the devil 1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

23 I. Five Things That Christ In Us Performs E. Anchors my life in God s love Ephesians 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, Only Christ in me can fill me with all the fullness of God. Colossians 2: For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

24 II. Five Benefits of Experiencing Christ In Me A. Empowers me to achieve unity of the faith with other believers John 17: That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

25 II. Five Benefits of Experiencing Christ In Me B. Causes me to take more seriously the importance and purpose of my human body 1 Corinthians 6:15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

26 II. Five Benefits of Experiencing Christ In Me C. Explains why sometimes I experience a civil war raging within me Romans 7: For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.

27 II. Five Benefits of Experiencing Christ In Me D. Empowers me to have victory over the sin in my life Romans 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. Romans 6:11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

28 II. Five Benefits of Experiencing Christ In Me E. Allows access to resources that makes me more than an over comer against all my spiritual enemies Because in Christ, God Himself dwells in our hearts, the Kingdom of God is within us Luke 17: And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
