Christian Devotional – January 29, 2018

Are you dead or alive in Christ? See what it says in Luke 20:27-47.

Now He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for all live to Him.”
Luke 20:38 NASB

The religious leaders had been testing Jesus trying to find ways to make him slip up so they could accuse him. Yet when they posed this question, Jesus was able to effectively answer it and then explain that God is the God of the living not the God of the dead.

As we are going through our life in Christ, in the day-to-day experiences that we have, are we experiencing God as a God of the living? Do we recognize that we have life through Christ? He is the one who gives us purpose and meaning, and without him in our lives, we are truly dead.
