L D OCTRINAL OCTRINAL LLESSON L ESSON SSECTION S ECTION 29 TTHE T HE BBELIEVER B ELIEVER ELIEVER’S ELIEVER UUNION U NION WITH WITH CCHRIST C HRIST DOCTRINAL SUMMARY This union may be defined as that intimate, vital, spiritual union between Christ and His people, in virtue of which He is the source of their life and strength, of their blessedness and salvation. This union is mystical because it so far transcends all the analogies of earthly relationships in the intimacy of connection, in the transforming power of its influence, and in the excellency of its consequences. The sinner cannot share in the saving benefits of Christ’s redemptive work, unless he be in union with Him. As Adam was the representative head of our old humanity, so Christ is the representative head of our new humanity. All the blessings of grace flow from our Mediator, and even the first blessing of saving grace presupposes a union with the Person who is the Mediator. Every spiritual blessing which believers receive flows to them out of Christ. This union of Christ and the believer is effected by the Holy Spirit in a mysterious and supernatural way. Since His children shared in flesh and blood, “He also in like manner partook of the same; that through death He might bring to naught him who had the power of death, that is the devil; and might deliver all them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” (Heb. 2:14,15). He could merit salvation for them just because He already stood in relation to them as their Surety and Mediator, their Head and Substitute. The Church was crucified with Christ, she died with Him, she arose in Him from the dead, and was made to sit with Him in the heavenly places. In an objective way, all the blessings of saving grace lie ready for the Church; and they await only their subjective application by the operation of the Holy Spirit. AS YOU PRAYERFULLY CONSIDER YOUR RESPONSE: 2 2 Peter Peter 1:3,4 1:3,4 ~ Realize and glory in the fact that “His Divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of Him Who called us by His own glory and goodness.” (NIV) HOMEWORK: Read the central passages daily.
