I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. - Gal 2:20
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. - Col 3:3
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. - Romans 8:9
Thanks for your reply. Illuminating, as always. Nothing I can add.
As a general rule, I only lurk on RCC-themed threads. With my "tact", my comments are sure to offend someone on one side or the other... '-)
