Being in Christ happens outside the exercise of your will or my will. It will have to be a matter of what God does by His grace, and fortunately for us, that's exactly how it happens.
What does it mean to truly live 'in Christ'? In this engaging episode of 'Joyful Recovery in Christ', Pastor Jim Nihiser breaks down this profound concept with clarity and warmth. He dives into the significance of God's grace and how it brings believers into a deep, transformative relationship with Christ. Pastor Jim unpacks five key action words—foreknowledge, predestination, calling, justification, and glorification—that illustrate this divine process.
His explanation of foreknowledge, where he describes it as God's loving choice to embrace believers even before they are aware, is particularly eye-opening. This episode also touches on the third step of Christian recovery, focusing on surrendering one's life to God's will. Pastor Jim makes a compelling distinction between making a decision and making a choice, shedding light on how these actions play a crucial role in one's spiritual journey.
By the end of the episode, listeners are invited to join a supportive Christian recovery group at the Traverse City Alamo Club, fostering a sense of community and shared faith. With its message of hope and encouragement, this episode is sure to resonate deeply with anyone seeking a joyful recovery in Christ.
