Portrait of a Christian

Of this church I (Paul) was made a minister according to the stewardship from God bestowed on me for your benefit, so that I might fully carry out the preaching of the word of God, that is, the mystery which has been hidden from the past ages and generations, but has now been manifested to His saints, to whom God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is

Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Romans 8:10 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.10.NASB1995

Whose righteousness? Christ, in you.
Are you alive in Christ?
Are you walking in the hope of Christ?
Do you have hope of the glory to come?

Portrait #1: Christ in you!

Jesus speaking to the Father:
🙏The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.
Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

Hidden Adornment

Your adornment must not be merely external . . . but let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.

https://bible.com/bible/100/1pe.3.1-4.NASB1995

Brokenhearted

The Lord is near to the brokenhearted And saves those who are crushed (contrite) in spirit.

https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.34.18.NASB1995

The road that Jesus walked was not an easy one but He did it for our sake and the Father’s glory.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.

Gentle Quiet Spirit

Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near.
Philippians 4:5 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.4.5.NASB1995

Do you have a gentle spirit? Have you ever thought about where a gentle spirit comes from?

1 Peter 3:3a-4 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1pe.3.3-4.NASB1995

A gentle spirit comes from Jesus. The imperishable and gentle quiet spirit is the Holy Spirit that resides in a saved person. Precious in the sight of God is the reflection of the Father’s Son, Jesus, in us. Surrendering our whole heart to God will transform us into a gentle spirited person.

Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.
Romans 12:1 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.12.1.NASB1995

To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit;
