Grace Gems - Christ Is Our Root




Jesus came to remove our root in Adam by dying as us on the cross and give us His root of righteousness as a free gift. Notice, in both cases we cannot produce fruit by our performance. Good fruit or bad fruit is a result of our root. Self righteousness because of Adam or the gift of righteousness because of the second Adam, Christ. As believers we’re now grafted into the root called Christ and when we feed from the root, good fruits are produced unconsciously, effortlessly. This is why, when we see Jesus in the Bible, we feed on the root and fruits just happen. When you as a believer find yourself struggling with sin or feel disgusted about yourself, stop trying to change yourself. Behaviour modification can only go so far. Continue feeding on your root Jesus and when you feed on Him, true heart transformation happens.
