Philippians 3:8-11
Excerpted from: Four Views of Christ (Part 7)What am I saying here? Again, please remember the principle I have been expounding—about us being in Christ, about us following the same path as the Head went along, the Archegos. "As He is, so are we in the world!"
Brethren, if we are truly in Christ, then step-by-step, we are being drawn along the same path that He trod toward death. But in this case, I am not thinking of martyrdom, but the death of self, which absolutely must precede a resurrection to spirit life. If we walk in the spirit, little by little the death of self is reached, even as, little by little, if we walk in the flesh, it is going to be removed from us. Even as Christ did not reach the crucifixion by one giant step, we do not reach death of self in one giant step. Death of self takes place in the common everyday acts of truth and faithfulness, or we go right back into the world through common everyday sins.
