1 " Have you realized what it means that God sent the Holy Spirit into our hearts? It is nothing less than this: Christ, who had been with the disciples on earth but not in them, came back to them in the Spirit, now to dwell in them just as He had before dwelt with them. All that we read of the wondrous change that came over the disciples—their selfishness changed into love, their pride into humility, their fear of suffering into boldness and joy, their unbelief into fullness of faith, their feebleness into power—was owing to this one thing: the glorified Christ had come to dwell within them as their Life. "

2 " Stop and think, and take in the wondrous thought that will be both the motivation and the power for an entirely new life: “Christ is in you.” If you merely learn to believe this, to give way to it, and to yield yourself to Him, He will do His mighty saving work in you. "
3 " Beware of only saying, “Christ was crucified for me”; say, too, “I am crucified with Christ.” (See Galatians 2: 20.) The one thing for which He lives in you is to breathe His own likeness into your nature, to impart to you His own crucifixion spirit, to give you the blessed disposition that made His sacrifice so well pleasing to the Father. Do accept the whole Christ as dwelling in you. "
