CHRIST IS CENTRAL TO LIFE

A Service of Song, Word, & Table

August 18, 2024


“Every one of these can say, with St. Paul, ‘I am crucified with Christ: Nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me’—words that manifestly describe a deliverance from inward as well as from outward sin. This is expressed both negatively, I live not—my evil nature, the body of sin, is destroyed—and positively, Christ liveth in me; and, therefore, all that is holy, and just, and good. Indeed, both these, Christ liveth in me, and I live not, are inseparably connected…”

  - John Wesley, from his sermon, Christian Perfection
