The Likeness Of Christ
By: Robert A. Searles
As Jesus our Savior was the image of the invisible God when he was on
earth, so we as Christians ought to bear the image of Christ in our
bodies while our Lord is now back in heaven with the Father.
We are to be witnesses of him even as he was a revelation and a witness
of the Father. A witness is one who shows forth or proclaims to be
true that which is, and that which is true.
Someone has
said that we tend to become like that which we behold, and affix our
thoughts upon; then if this is indeed true, we need to be constantly
beholding the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world, and
by steadfastly fixing our gaze upon him, let his image be formed in us
that the world in which we live and have to do will see a reflection of
the living Christ in us. And by our yielding our mortal bodies to him
they might truly be his holy temple wherein dwelleth the presence of
the Holy Spirit and righteous God, established in the faith and
resting securely upon the word of God.
If we are to be
witnesses, then: “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord,
so walk ye in him, Rooted and built up in him, and established in the
faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after
the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after
Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodiy.
And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and
power.” Colossians 2: 6-10.
