When I first saw Christ as the life of every born again believer and began to preach and teach about that someone once said to me, "all you talk about is Christ."
As I began to see Christ in the scriptures I understood every believer needed a revelation of the indwelling Christ. Paul's gospel came by "the revelation of Jesus Christ." Paul's gospel came by the revelation of the indwelling Christ. Paul's gospel was "the mystery of Christ in you the hope of glory." Gal. 1:11-12
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Also look at Galatians 1:15-16
15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
The certified gospel Paul preached was "the revelation of the mystery of Christ in you." There was a point in time in Paul's young Ministry God revealed Christ in Paul. As an honest bible student have you ever asked the question "what is the true gospel." How do I know I'm getting the fullness that God intended humanity to live by.
You may ask;.I believe in the Cross, the Resurrection, and the Ascension. How do I put the rest of the scriptures together. Would God provide such glorious salvation and leave the believer to try and figure it out on their own.
How to put it together, how to live it, what to do with the most powerful event to ever happen in this world.
Yet it seems some are left in the dark feeling through life trying to make some since of it all.
The good news is it has been revealed, it was given to our wonderful Apostle Paul to give to us, Ephesians 3:2-4
2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:
3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
Why should I read Paul; because reading Paul you get the understanding of God for the intention of creation before the foundation for the world, and the mystery (Christ) revealed to you, and in you, Eph. 3:8-9
8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
You must read all Ephesians and see how Paul handles the mystery. He never uses the words born again, always referring to the indwelling Christ as a mystery, a mystery that has been revealed.
You see dear friend we have no excuse for not knowing Christ that lives in the believer, it is revealed to us through the Apostle Paul in written form to be revealed by the HolySpirit.
When we stand before the judgment seat of Christ, the question will not be did you believe right, did you give your money and time right, or even did you pray and fast right. The question will be "what did you do with my Son," the Son that we have as our life and message.
The deep things of God is "Christ in you," you can not go any deeper in God than Christ in.
Paul makes the in Christ reference over 150 times.
We have to study the word and look for Christ in the word, who is the word, in you, 1 Cor. 2:9-11
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.
11 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.
