Christ in Me

Here’s a summary of this week’s sermon:

Welcome to CROWD Church. In this weeks CROWD church talk Matt Edmundson breaks down exactly what it means for christ to live in us, using Romans 2:20 as a core verse of study. To fully embrace and accept Christ in us we must first remove ourselves from the sins of the flesh, something Matt encourages us all to do, keeping Pauls words in Romans as a guiding principle for our lives.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Christ Lives Within Us: Matt emphasizes the profound truth that as believers, Christ dwells within us. This transformative reality, based on Galatians 2:20, should shape our identity and guide our daily lives. Recognizing that "it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me" can profoundly impact how we view ourselves and our purpose.

  2. Crucify the Desires of the Flesh: To fully embrace and live out our identity in Christ, Matt challenges believers to identify and crucify the desires and sins of the flesh that take the place of Christ in our hearts. This includes not only overt sins like lust and greed but also more subtle distractions like political ideologies that can shape our theology improperly.

  3. God's Presence Throughout History: Matt traces the journey of God's presence from the Tabernacle and Temple to Jesus and finally to the hearts of believers through the Holy Spirit. Understanding this progression helps us appreciate the significance of being a "temple of the Holy Spirit" and the incredible privilege and responsibility that comes with it.
