IF YOU COULD GET A KEY THAT WOULD UNLOCK ALL THE SECRETS OF LIFE, WOULD YOU WANT THAT KEY? IF YOU COULD GET A KEY THAT COULD OPEN EVERY DOOR AND CLOSE DOWN EVERY ENEMY, WOULD YOU NOT WANT THAT KEY? THE BIBLE SHOWS US THAT KEY. THE KEY IS CHRIST IN US AND US IN CHRIST. THIS SPEAKS OF AN ORGANIC UNION: WE ARE IN HIM AND HE IS IN US. THIS UNION IS NOT METAPHORICAL, IT IS A LIVING UNION, A LIFE-UNION. THE LORD HOLY SPIRIT REVEALED TO HUDSON TAYLOR THIS ORGANIC UNION, AND POWER FLOWED MIGHTILY THROUGH THE MINISTRY OF MR. TAYLOR. WE THINK MR. TAYLOR WAS CHOSEN BY GOD TO PRESENT IN A NEW DAY THE REVELATION OF THE CHRISTIANS UNION WITH CHRIST. WHERE THE BIBLE TEACHES THAT WE HAVE A LIVING UNION WITH CHRIST? JOHN 15:5. HERE LIES THE DEEP SECRET OF THE CHRISTIAN LIFE: WE ARE ONE WITH CHRIST. HE IS PART OF US, WE ARE PART OF HIM. HIS LIFE HAS BECOME OUR LIFE, HIS SPIRIT HAS BECOME PART OF OUR SPIRIT. ROMANS 11:17 SPEAKS OF GOD GRAFTING US INTO CHRIST WHO IS THE OLIVE TREE. WE ARE GRAFTED INTO HIM TO EXPERIENCE HIM WITHIN US! THIS IS MARVELOUS! THIS IS GLORIOUS! THIS IS HEAVEN! OH TO EXPERIENCE CHRIST IN US! IF I WAS A CHRISTIAN TEACHER, THIS WOULD BE ALL I WOULD TEACH ABOUT! WE ARE ONE WITH CHRIST! WE ARE ONE WITH CHRIST! NO WONDER GOD LOVES US AS MUCH AS HE LOVES HIS SON JESUS:WE ARE LIVING PARTS OF HIM! PAUL'S USE OF THE METAPHOR OF THE BODY IS NOT ONLY METAPHORICAL, IT IS LITERAL TOO! WE ARE MEMBERS OF CHRIST THE BODY. HIS SUBSTANCE HAS BEEN INYECTED INTO US! WONDER OF WONDERS! TO BE ONE WITH CHRIST! NOW, WHY GOD HAS DECIDED TO BECOME ONE WITH US? SO WE MAY ENJOY HIM IN US! ALL YOU NEED IS ALREADY IN! THERE IS AN INEXSAUSTIBLE FOUNTAIN OF LIFE IN YOU CALLED CHRIST! THERE IS A RESERVOIR OF POWER HIDDEN IN YOUR INNER MAN: CHRIST IN YOU. NOTICE THE BIBLE DOES NOT USES THE TERM CHRIST INSIDE OF YOU BECAUSE IN IMPLIES UNION! INSIDE IMPLIES SEPARATION AND WE ARE FOREVER ONE WITH CHRIST. BUT HOW DO WE EXPERIENCE THIS BEAUTIFUL UNION WITH CHRIST? FIRST, WE MUST GIVE HIM OUR WHOLE WILLS TO HIM TO DO WHATEVER HE WANTS WITH US. SECONDLY WE MUST DEPEND ON HIS POWER TO KEEP US CONTINUALLY FROM SINNING. YOU MUST CONTINUOSLY BELIEVE BY HIS FAITH THAT YOU ARE ALWAYS ONE WITH HIM IN SPIRIT. THIS IS THE KEY TO EVERYTHING! THIS IS WHAT NORMAN CRUBB SAW! THIS IS THE KEY TO THE UNIVERSE! THIS IS THE GREAT MYSTERY HIDDEN BEFORE THE FOUNDATIION OF THE WORLD: THE CHURCH BEING ONE WITH GOD! AMEN!
