CQOD: 07/12/06 -- Erasmus: full-time Christianity

Christian Quotation of the Day

July 12, 2006Meditation:
    We know that Christ being raised from the dead will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God. So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.
    -- Romans 6:9-11 (ESV)

Quotation:
    I take it that every Christian delivers himself up wholly to God in his baptism, when he renounces all the pomps and vanities of Satan, and enlists himself as a soldier to fight under Christ’s banner all his life after. And Saint Paul, speaking of those that die with Christ, that they may live no longer to themselves, but to Him that died for them, does not mean this of monks only, but of Christians universally.
    ... The Colloquies of Erasmus (1466?-1536)

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, lead me to a life lived for You.
