Foreword Christ in You

Christ in us is the hope of glory. The Kingdom of God is Christ in us. All of God’s purposes are fulfilled as Christ is formed in us. Christ in Yousets forth the biblical experience in nine steps, beginning with the work of the blood of the cross and ending with the resurrection from the dead. When Christ is formed in us, Christ Himself will come with the Father and They will make our personality Their abode for eternity.

For the reader who desires to understand our point of view, Christ in You may be the best text with which to begin his study. All of God’s purposes are fulfilled as God is in Christ in us.

One of the principal purposes of God in the Christian Church is the construction of an eternal dwelling place for Himself. It is difficult for the Lord to come into a satisfying relationship with His creatures. The Body of Christ, which is the Temple of God, removes that difficulty by becoming the hand and heart of God extended to people everywhere.

God walked in the garden of Eden until the other two inhabitants sinned, causing a curse to be placed on the entire earth.

The Presence of the Lord God of Heaven on Mount Sinai struck terror into the heart of the church in the wilderness as that awful Word of judgment, the Ten Commandments, was handed down.

When the Fire of Sinai dwelled among people as Jesus of Nazareth, both Israel and the Gentiles rejected Him. They plucked His beard, mocked Him, beat Him, and crowned Him with thorns—the thundering God of Sinai!

The all-wise God understands the inability of men and women to receive Him gladly and confidently. Therefore God is constructing on the Lord Jesus Christ an eternal Temple. The Temple of God is His eternal place of rest, His home among mankind. It is the living, visible expression and revelation of the invisible, supremely holy God.

Would you like to become a living stone in the Temple of God? God will dwell only in Christ. Christ in You discusses the manner in which God creates Christ in us.

When Christ has been created in us, then God dwells in Christ in us and we have become a living stone in the eternal Temple of God.

Introductory Scriptures

And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. (Exodus 25:8)

In whom (Christ) all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. (Ephesians 2:21,22)

To whom (the saints) 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: (Colossians 1:27)

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. (Revelation 21:3)
