Only To Have God Exalted, Christ Manifested!

Ray Stedman said:
Karl Marx wrote that communists are dead men on furlough, i.e., they treat themselves as though they are as good as dead. They have nothing to lose so they are ready for anything. That characterizes even better what a Christian really is. He is really a dead man on furlough. He wants nothing for himself, but wants only to have God exalted, Christ manifested. We have it stated so clearly here in these words which are carved across the front of our auditorium: "You are not your own; you are bought with a price."

Ray Stedman, "Last Words"

Yes indeed, Christ manifested! Christ IS made manifest within us as explained by the Book of Revelation. Depending on what we are looking for, Revelation shows us death and destruction…or the revelation of Christ within us.
