"In Christ...." This phrase is used all the time by Christians to describe their salvation. In fact, it is used so frequently it almost becomes cliché and void of what it really means. What DOES it mean to be in Christ? St. Paul uses it some 164 times in his 13 epistles alone. I believe the secret is Jesus' teaching in John 14:1-14. Jesus reveals two things about himself and the faith of his disciples and they revolve around the two questions asked by Thomas and Philip. First, he reveals that he is the way, the truth, and the life. (This was our focus in last week's sermon.) Today we focus on Philip's question to which Jesus answers "I am IN the Father and the Father is IN me..." Simple words - not so simple meaning. The Christian is in JEsus, the same way the Father is in Christ. Find out the deep meanings to this text!
