Living Christ\u201d\u2122s Eternal Life<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Matthew 9:35-38 (NIV)<\/strong>
\n35 \u00a0Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness.
\n36 \u00a0When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
\n37 \u00a0Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.
\n38 \u00a0Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

John 12:24 (NIV)<\/strong>
\n24 \u00a0I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.<\/p>\n

John 15:5 (NIV)<\/strong>
\n5 \u00a0“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.<\/p>\n

John 6:51, 53 (NIV)<\/strong>
\n51 \u00a0I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”<\/p>\n

53 \u00a0Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.
\n\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

John 14:6 (NIV)<\/strong>
\n6 \u00a0Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.<\/p>\n

Romans 8:29-30 (MSG)<\/strong>
\n29 \u00a0God knew what he was doing from the very beginning. He decided from the outset to shape the lives of those who love him along the same lines as the life of his Son. The Son stands first in the line of humanity he restored. We see the original and intended shape of our lives there in him. 30 \u00a0After God made that decision of what his children should be like, he followed it up by calling people by name. After he called them by name, he set them on a solid basis with himself. And then, after getting them established, he stayed with them to the end, gloriously completing what he had begun.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Spirit of the Disciplines<\/strong>
\n\u201cBut the idea of redemption as the impartation of a life provides a totally different framework of understanding. God\u201d\u2122s seminal redemptive act toward us is the communication of a new kind of life, as the seed \u201d\u201c one of our Lord\u201d\u2122s most favored symbols \u201d\u201c carries a new life into the enfolding soil. Turning from old ways with faith and hope in Christ stands forth as the natural first expression of the new life imparted. That life will be poised to become a life of the same quality as Christ\u201d\u2122s, because it indeed is Christ\u201d\u2122s. He really does live on in us. The incarnation continues.\u201d

 <\/p>\n

Jesus has no intention of letting you become whole apart from His moment-to-moment presence and life within you.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hebrews 12:2-3 (NIV)<\/strong>
\n2 \u00a0Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
\n3 \u00a0Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.<\/p>\n
