The Effect of Being in Christ

Summary

Christians are described by the apostle Paul, not as being with Christ, or next to Christ, but as being “IN CHRIST”. Continuing his exhortation to live worthy of the gospel, Paul shows how the Philippians are Called to the mind of Christ, Humbled by the life of Christ, and Empowered by the exaltation of Christ.
