-Attainment to the first resurrection, the resurrection of the royal priesthood, flows from conformity to Christ’s death (Revelation 20:6).
-Christ died and rose again two thousand years ago. Today the Holy Spirit is creating us an integral part of His death and His resurrection.
-If we cooperate with the Holy Spirit as He presses us into the death and into the life of Christ, then, when Christ appears, we will appear with Him as an incorruptible part of His Presence.
-The new creation that we will be seen to be will not be us, nor will it be Christ. It will be a new creation compounded from Christ and us—a unique revelation to the universe of the Person and will of the almighty God of Heaven.
