" I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. "
Gal.2:20

Have you ever considered what the Apostle Paul meant by this phrase ? Do you realize his statement applies to you ? But have you ever asked; how were we crucified with Christ, when we weren't physically there as He was crucified ? We didn't even look upon Him, as He shed His precious blood for us.

If this is true of us ( that we were crucified with Christ ), when we weren't even there, is it also true of the O.T. saints as well ? Who also weren't there ? Just how much did the O.T. saints know ( or understand ) about the promised Messiah? Was their faith in Him, and what they understood He would accomplish by His death; or were they saved some other way?

Do you know where to find the first mention of the suffering Messiah ?

No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. 1 Cor. 2: 7

Genesis 3:15

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - part of Jim Elliot's October 28, 1949 journal entry

One life will soon be passed, only what's done for Christ will last!
