@sinbach This is my testimony of how He saved me from my sins https://scwatchman.space/my-testimony/
“Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth. For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven. Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants. Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction. I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.”
Psalm 119:88-93 KJV

Romans 6:4-8 #TPT
Sharing in his death by our baptism means that we were co-buried with him, so that when the Father’s glory raised Christ from the dead, we were also raised with him. We have been co-resurrected with him so that we could be empowered to walk in the freshness of new life.
For since we are permanently grafted into him to experience a death like his, then we are permanently grafted into him to experience a resurrection like his and the new life that it imparts.
Could it be any clearer that our former identity is now and forever deprived of its power? For we were co-crucified with him to dismantle the stronghold of sin within us, so that we would not continue to live one moment longer submitted to sin’s power.
Obviously, a dead person is incapable of sinning.
And if we were co-crucified with the Anointed One, we know that we will also share in the fullness of his life.

@ByGraceAlone Without the Holy Spirit guiding us through the scriptures, we can know neither the truth nor test a lie. For it is by setting a crooked lie next to the straight truth that identifies the lie. Amen! 🙏
With the curtain torn, all the hidden things of the old dispensation became apparent:
The mercy-seat could now be seen, and the glory of God gleaming above it.
By the death of our Lord Jesus we have a clear revelation of God, for He was “not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face.”
Life and immortality are now brought to light, and things that have been hidden since the foundation of the world are displayed in Him.
