From the wounds of the Savior

[reFORMer]

Forgiving, healing, enlightening, liberating, enriching all: From the wounds of the Savior of the World flows virtue to make us into His image and likeness.

His stripes: our healing provided.

His beard yanked out: our maturity secured.

His face beaten and disfigured as they mocked Him saying, "Prophecy, who hit you" while He was blindfolded: our identity displayed and our prophetic insight certified.

His crown of thorns: our peace of mind and wisdom to reign realized as we put on His mind.

His carrying the cross, stumbling under it and being helped in carrying it: our recanting under pressure provided for, our weakness in humiliation God fellowships with, our world's giving us an intrument of death God uses to bring them newness of life.

His nakedness: our clothed in glory.

His hands nailed to the cross: our work liberated and elevated.

His feet nailed to the cross: our walk in the world and our way into God made sure.

His thirst: our's quenched.

His death, one died for all: therefore all died and we have our freedom from sin, its guilt, its reign, its wages, its power.

His side pierced to the heart in death from whence blood and water flowed: our hard hearts broken, our broken hearts bound up, our filthy hearts cleansed, our old hearts made new, our hearts overflowing with love beyond all bounds of life or death, our hearts blood sanctified as covenanted home for His resurrected and ascended presence.

Jesus made us one with Him in His obedient life, His death, burial and resurrection, as well as His ascension, from whence He sends Himself into us as Spirit. He overcame all things that destroy man opening the way for us to do the same.

His gave His all: to Him all flesh shall come. "And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it." (Isa 40:5)

Wow.

[reFORMer]

Jesus is often presented externally as our example.  But, we are at this time, with Him in His body on the tree.  By the Holy Spirit we are in union with Him.  We right now have oneness in ascension.

IMO we aren't hanging on the tree because Jesus isn't hanging on the tree.
I believe we are raised to walk in the newness of the resurrected life which happened after the tree.

[marie glen]

...we're not hanging on the tree but we "reckon ourselves as crucified with Christ" / dead to self (interest) or at least we're headed in that direction and making progress toward it
