Then the Saints of God are a risen people. What a glorious character is theirs! Spiritually they are risen with Christ from the grave of death and sin to newness of life. One of the causes of a feeble Christianity is the low estimate the believer forms of his Spiritual character. Were this higher, were it more proportioned to our real standing, our responsibility would appear in a more solemn light, our sense of obligation would be deeper, and practical holiness of a high order would be our more constant aim. Ours is a glorious and exalted life. Our standing is higher, infinitely higher than the highest angel, our glory infinitely greater than the most glorious Seraph.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"text-align-justify\">“Christ our life” (Col.3:3) “We are risen with Christ”. By this we are declared to be a chosen, an adopted, a pardoned, a justified, and a quickened people. What an exalted character, what a holy one, then, is a believer in Jesus Christ! Herein lie his true dignity and his real wealth. It is that he is a partaker of the divine nature that he is one with the risen Lord. Poor as he may be in this world, yet he is rich in faith, and an heir of the Kingdom, for he has Christ. Rich may he be in this world, titled and exalted, yet if Christ is in his heart, that heart is deeply sensible of its native poverty is lowly, child-like, Christ-like.
