Cor 1558

5. Your toil or labor You use your volition
during this time on earth. Your volition
determines your control or lack of control over
your life.
8
It is your positive decisions daily, your
evaluation of what is important in your life, the
Word, daily perception, spiritual growth and
works unto God thru the FGtHS.

6. Believers who do not use the power of God live
empty lives.
10
For believers who use and apply the power of God
in their lives are not empty or not in vain,
they have spiritual growth, production and
impact.
11
Through simple recollection of God's power and
promises you stand firm and confident in Him.

Principles
15
Principles 1) The power that sustained the
humanity of Christ on the Cross and gave Him the
endurance to bear our sins is the same power made
available to us for the fulfillment of the Plan
of God.
16
Principles 2) The power that resurrected Christ
from the dead is the same power delegated and
made available to every Church Age believer for
the fulfillment of the Plan of God.
17
In physical death, our Lord Jesus Christ had a
trichotomous separation.
18
1) His body went into the grave. Luke 2350-53

God the Father is said to be the agent of the
resurrection, He raised Him from the dead. Eph
120 Col 212 1 Thes 110 Rom 64 1 Pet 121
Heb 1320
26
But Scripture also says the Holy Spirit raised
Him from the dead. Acts 224 Rom 14 811 1
Pet 318 So God the Holy Spirit is also the
agent of the resurrection.

The power that resurrected Christ is now made
available to all human beings from the
omnipotence of God the Father and God the Holy
Spirit.
35
Eph 120,Which power He put into operation by
means of Christ when He God the Father raised
Him from the dead and seated Him at His right
hand.
36
In Acts 231 Peter said, He David looking
ahead spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that
He was neither abandoned in Hades nor did His
flesh see decay.
37
Rom 64, Therefore, we have been buried with Him
Christ through baptism into death in order
that, as Christ was raised from the dead through
the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in
newness of life.
38
2 Cor 134,For indeed He was crucified because
of weakness ours, yet He lives because of the
power of God.
39
That is why Paul said in Phil 310, "That I may
come to know Him and the power of His
resurrection."
