2See God in Christ and See Christ in Us
I have been crucified with Christ it is no
longer I who live, but Christ lives in me and
the life which I now live in the flesh I live by
faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave
Himself for me. (Gal. 220)
That Christ may dwell in your hearts through
faith... (Eph. 317)
I and My Father are one. (John 1030) If you had
known Me, you would have known My Father also
and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.

4Exhorted to be God-like
For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in
holiness. (1 Thess. 47) But reject
profane and old wives' fables, and exercise
yourself toward godliness. For bodily exercise
profits a little, but godliness is profitable for
all things, having promise of the life that now
is and of that which is to come. (1 Tim.
47-8) For the grace of God that brings
salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us
that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we
should live soberly, righteously, and godly in
the present age, (Titus 211-12) Therefore put
to death your members which are on the earth
fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire,
and covetousness, which is idolatry. (Col. 35)
