Zombie

This is the time of year when I see all sorts of Halloween costumes around. From Super Man to Duck Dynasty and everywhere in between you can put on a mask and pretend to be someone you’re not. People dress up like zombies, witches and goblins as well. Zombies are defined as a corpse that is supposedly revived by witchcraft. I’m not a fan of Halloween because it’s origin and it’s recurring theme involve a lot of background in evil. I did find that Paul speaks of being dead to sin and alive in Christ. The timing of reading that with all the zombies and goblins around is a bit funny. Check this out…

I have been raised to life from death, but I’m not a zombie! I will battle sin in my body until the day I meet Jesus face to face. Paul challenges the Roman believers and me to not let sin be my master. I am no longer under the law but under grace, therefore I should run from sin because I love God and His Presence in me matters! I need to flee from sin and any appearance of sin. I once was lost but now I’m found. I’m full of life and I live the abundant life NOT a zombie life. I’m dead to sin and alive in Christ. I’m walking “alive” not “walking dead”!
