Buried With Him!
Psalm 89:48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death?
John 8:51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep My sayings, he shall never see death.
We die no more than that in baptism! Yahushua is saying just that. Not only being dunked but being transformed by the Holy Spirit that comes to dwell in us. We look at death only with the physical eye, but God is spiritual. You who have come to the Messiah have already died and have been raised to newness of life. This is a great mystery revealed.
Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was found not, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
That same Spirit that translated Enoch has translated your soul and spirit already. We wait for the translation of the body only. You shall not see death. Our testimony of Yahushua’s death and resurrection by our baptism in obedience to His word and the receiving of His Spirit please God because of our faith in His Word.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
Romans 6:3-4 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Yahushua Messiah were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Messiah was raised up from the dead be the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. READ 5-10
Romans 6:11-13 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Yahushua Messiah our master. 12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
Do you believe the Messiah? You shall never see death! You have already paid the price by your faith that He Yahushua took your place in the grave. Now are you raised in newness of life! You are a new creature! You shall never see death! You have believed on His name: Yahuweh who saves, Yahushua, Jesus the Christ of Nazareth.
Father thank you for the truth of the Word and Your reward for faith and obedience, life without end. Halle lu Yah Yahushua King of Kings.
