"To open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me." - Acts 26:18

Life
Many in the Church lack faith and therefore lack life. Lifelessness in humanity is the result of one not being reunited with God through faith in Christ. Lifelessness comes from unbelief. Only if one believes in Christ can they receive life. No person by himself or herself has the power of eternal life living within them. One must act upon what Christ teaches us, these are those who have the work of Jesus Christ being done within them. If not one will fall into religious habit. No one has the life of God until they are born again from above. Unless the nature of Christ is birthed within a person they cannot live according to the life of Christ. Nicodemus could not bring himself to understand what Jesus was teaching. There are many in the Christian Church that have not entered into the life of Christ through faith and therefore they are living a law. But if one is born from above they have Christ living in them. Jesus always rebuked those who lived with a false religious profession. If someone wants the life of God they must come to Him on His terms. Have you made Jesus Christ lord over every part of your life? Redemption is only found through faith in the blood of Christ.
