Are You In Christ Or Is Christ In You

Do you walk around and wear Him as a vest and only reveal Him when the heat gets too much Does His heartbeat, beat to the beat of yours Is your blood infused with His and does it flow from within His veins For when He hanged at Calvary He took part in the greatest blood transfusion ever heard off Are you in Christ or is Christ in you? Do you only use His name when it is suitable? Trying to fit in with the crowd when in fact you should not conform to the standards of this world Relying on your own unstable knowledge? Formed from the opinions of editors of magazines, newspapers or news bulletin Practically too afraid to refer to His word in case someone might miss-taken you for a bore Does the term brethren only refer to you when you are confined by the four walls of your church building? Cause the minute you step outside the gates you take salvation Carry Him by the hand and hide Him away when you interact with your peers Sneaking into clinics, thinking no one can recognize who you Must applaud you, you’re a great actor But be warned because the director in heaven has control to bring an end to the scene in which you’re acting You see even The Pill couldn’t help Masturbating with the idea of being saved While Intersecting with your evil desires Talk about gratification of the Flesh!!! No concentrative can terminate the conception of sin Which planet are you from Venus, Jupiter or Mars It doesn’t really matter for it was He who created all things under the heavens Where have you ever seen the branch carrying the Vine? If you are sitting down With your mind entangled by this question Distinguish this… When you’re in Him, He takes your nakedness and shamefulness And allows His glory to be the very covering When you’re in Him, your flaws are eliminated because they are engrafted on the side in which He was pierced For He is the very foundation of all things When you’re in Him, He changes the very way in which you walk Sometimes His wrath will have you limping back across the river just like Jacob – I mean Israel Choose today in whom you will abide! Are you in Christ or is Christ in you!!!
