Out to In |
||
Deuteronomy 6: 23,
"And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to
give us the land which he sware unto our fathers." Moses was speaking
how God had brought Israel out of the bondage of Egypt that He might bring
them into the promised land of Canaan. Egypt and Canaan are recognized as
types of sin verses salvation. They could not go IN until they had come
OUT.
The same is true with us. IN CHRIST are all spiritual blessings (Eph. 1: 3). We cannot be in Christ until we go OUT of the world of sin and darkness and turn our faces toward the Light of the world. We make a grave mistake to think we can be among "the called out" (the church) and continue to live in the land of sinful slavery. |
