Christ in you is the gift of God on Pentecost. You in Christ is massively different.  You in Christ is looking from the top down.
Matt. 6:22
Phil. 3: 8-21  What is a gain to us is a loss to Christ.

Lev. 17: 10-14  No eating or drinking blood.
Heb. 9:13
John 6: 53-54  Unless you consume Christ’s blood, you cannot have life. Our only worth is from the bride, our only sustenance comes from Christ.
By empathy we can see that our worth doesn’t come from where we go/travel or who is in our bloodline, but from Christ and the bride.

Gal. 3: 11-20 God cut the covenant alone, while Abraham slept.
Intimacy has been lost because we have forgotten the blood. We have become careful, we have sanitized our belief.
Religion (all religions, including modern day Christianity) requires the best in people. We (hopefully) accept sinners, failures.
Heb. 8: 1-13 We can’t pay attention to the lust of our minds.  Lust simply means wanting things to be different.

What does the blood do?
Heb. 13:18-21 Ancient tribes became new when they cut a covenant, there is fear and awe connected with blood.

1 John 3: 8-13  We dismiss the fall, the curse is still in effect, except we see/accept our death
Gen. 17: 9-11  Circumcision is also called the blood covenant
Gen. 7:8; 9:1-6  not eating blood
Heb. 9:2  Jesus’ blood

Blood
Gen. 15: 9-10 God cut the covenant with Abraham
Gal. 3:15-17
God formed Adam.  When Adam fell, his genetic nature was changed. What does the blood say? It says we are forgiven, justified, are redeemed, sanctified, washed, cleansed, have peace, have overcome the world and the evil one, have been made perfect, purged from dead works, etc.  The only battle field is your mind.
Life is in the blood…ancient cultures all had blood right and knew this intuitively.

Galatians 4:22-31
1 John 3:6-10 (Born of God, cannot sin)  Contrast with 1 John 1:8-10 (if we say we have not sin, we make him a liar)
Gal. 5: 16-18  If self is abandoned we will not fulfill lust, we are not under law.
Heb. 13: 12-13  Bearing his reproach outside the camp means we become publicly identified with the gospel/ doctrine.
Aven = self exertion
Watchman’s duty.
