Section 15

deadened by the indwelling death. However, if we allow Christ to gain even an inch of ground within us, life will be ministered to our mortal body. It will spread out of our spirit into our deadened members, and we shall begin to praise the Lord. The more we praise the Lord, the more our whole being is empowered.

BEING LIBERATED PEOPLE

We cannot deny that the elements of sin and death are in us. How we thank the Lord that we also have the element called "the Spirit of life." Furthermore, we have the element of the indwell ing Christ. Having all these elements within us, the question is which we shall use in our "cook ing." A sister has many elements in her kitchen, but everything depends on which elements she chooses to cook with. We need always to turn to our spirit and to live according to our spirit. If we do this, the indwelling Christ will be real to us, and we shall see how unlimited He is. Even tually, He will spread Himself from our spirit into our deadened, mortal body. In this way we shall be completely freed from death.

When we are freed from sin, the law, the flesh, and death, we are truly liberated people. As such persons, we are no longer under sin, the law, the

flesh, and death. The way to be free from all these things is to have our old man crucified, to have our old husband buried, and to turn to the spirit, set our mind on the spirit, and walk according to the spirit. If we do this, we shall eventually be freed completely. This word may be rather simple and brief, but if we practice and experience it, we shall see that it is unlimited, unfathomable, deep, and profound.
