Guest: Greg Gilbert, Senior Pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church

For if we have become united with Christ in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection.  Romans 6:3,5

One of the most important—yet under-emphasized—doctrines of Scripture is the believer’s identification with Christ in His death and resurrection.

But what does this identification with Christ actually mean and how does it apply to the Christian’s daily life?

Here’s a hint: this truth is the key to overcoming temptation and the basis for the believer’s victory over sin and death.  Now that’s important!

Greg Gilbert, senior pastor of Third Avenue Baptist Church in Louisville, KY and author of What is the Gospel? and Who is Jesus?, joins us this Easter weekend on The Christian Worldview to explain the believer’s identification with Christ that He won for Christians when He died on the cross and rose from the grace some 2000 years ago.
