Union with Christ

Union with Christ

Came across this little summary by G Walter Hansen in the Pillar Commentary on Philippians - it describes how Paul uses the concept of union with Christ together with the preposition with. I found it very stirring.

  • Buried with (Rom 6.4, Col 2.12)
  • United with (Rom 6.5)
  • Crucified with (Rom 6.6, Gal 2.20)
  • Live with (Rom 6.7)
  • Heirs with (Rom 8.17)
  • Suffer with (Rom 8.17)
  • Glorify with (Rom 8.17)
  • Have the same form with (Rom 8.29, Phil 3.21)
  • Be conformed with (Phil 3.10)

Meditate on those and rejoice!
