In His Body - Colossians 1:21-22

Colossians 1:21-22 ESV 

And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him,

His body took our place in the judgement for our sin. His flesh was given for our flesh. We become the body of Christ and become the flesh of His body on earth. 

Our faith places us back in the Garden as individuals with the same choice that was before Eve, whether to obey God or to partake of forbidden fruit. We have the power and counsel of Christ to help us through this journey. 

The tree of life will be the inheritance of those who endure to the end. Hold on to what you've got.
