our hearts and imaginations captive in response to the dominant

Daily Message
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book...
Christ lives in me
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer
live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by
