1 | Presented before Him, complete in Him | Rom 8:11 | Ray | 139157 | ||
In looking at Romans 8:11, I have learned to compare it with Colossians 1:27. When we have His (Spirit) indwelling us, then we are proclaiming Him and are completed in (Christ). Would this be a good Scripture "match"? From the heart, Ray |

2 | Presented before Him, complete in Him | Rom 8:11 | Deafawake | 139204 | ||
Try Acts 2:24, 1 Cor 6:14, Ephesians 2:5. These more accurately match. |

Hi Deafawake, Your Scripture choices indeed speak well together about the power of God. God raised up the Lord through His power and He is the One who has power to raise us up with Him in the heavenly places. 1) I think that the Ephesians 2:5 verse is closest to matching the idea of Rom 8:11 and Colossians 1:27 where the (Spirit) indwells us and we are completed in (Christ). Of course the parentheses are mine to show comparisons. Ephesians 2:4, "But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, [He] made us alive together with (Christ) (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus," How great is His grace. It is the gift of (God). 2) I might say in passing that it is important in the passage from Acts that we recognize this Man, Jesus Christ. Acts 2:22, NASB, "Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a *man attested to you by God with mircles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know--23 this Man,..." Acts 2:22, "Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a *Man attested by God to you..." I go with the NKJ for this verse with its capitalized "Man". From the heart, Ray |
