Though I am dead, I still walk, talk and sing praises to God my King.
When he died, I was there with him on that cross, reconciled to God and not to ever suffer loss.
That day I died and no longer live for sin and pride, for it is Christ who lives in me, which I cannot hide.
A new life has begun; this hidden treasure within me is the glory of God given to me through his Son.
This is the same Glory of God that was in his Temple in the Bible we do read but when Jesus died, from that Temple the Glory did leave.
Now God dwells in Temples not made by hands, they are believers in Jesus, found in all lands.
All these dead people walking and talking but it is not them but Christ who lives to offer the world Eternal Life which only he can give!
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Colossi-ans 3:3 KJV.
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20 NLT.
We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves. 2-Corinthians 4:7 NLT.
However, the Most High doesn't live in temples made by human hands. As the prophet says, Acts 7:48 NLT.
And what union can there be between God's temple and idols? For we are the temple of the living God.
As God said:
"I will live in them
and walk among them.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people 2-Corinthians 6:16 NLT.
