Section 11

resurrection and ascension. In resurrection we have life, and in ascension we have power and authority. In resurrection we receive the essen tial Spirit for life, and in ascension we enjoy the economical Spirit for power.

When some hear that as believers we are in Christ's resurrection and ascension, they may say, "I don't feel that I am in the resurrection and ascension of Christ." If this is your situation, you need the Lord to open up His Word to you and also to open your eyes. When the Lord opens His Word and our eyes, we see that we are in Christ, and Christ is no longer in the tomb but is in res urrection and ascension. In resurrection He is our life, and in ascension He is our power. The res urrected Christ, that is, the pneumatic Christ, is our life essentially; and the ascended Christ, that is, the enthroned Christ, is our power economi cally. We do not need to feel this or sense it—we simply need to see it. Seeing produces believing. When we see, we believe.

But how can we see? We see through the Lord's opening the Word and opening our eyes. Praise the Lord that He has opened His Word and our eyes! Now we believe not only in His death, but also in His resurrection and ascension. More and

more, let us experience life in His resurrection and power in His ascension.
