The work of Christ our Redeemer is not just a call to association but a call to involvement in living the life of Christ as our redemption is ‘unto good works.’

There is the necessity of the doing which can only come from a life that is deeply rooted - entrenched and intertwined with Christ.

This is the true implication of redemption.

Any other way will hinder what God intends to do through us.

God’s ultimate desire is that as our roots go deeper in Christ, we will bear real fruits upwards that testify to His redeeming grace and bring glory to His name. (Matthew 5:16)
