Christ the Means of Self-Crucifixion
Galatians 6:14
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me…


I. BY HIS MIGHTY WORKING WITHIN US.

II. BY LOOKING UPON HIM AS AN EFFECTUAL ENGAGING EXAMPLE.

III. BY BEHOLDING IN HIM INFINITELY MORE AND BETTER THINGS THAN THE WORLD CAN AFFORD.

IV. BY PONDERING THAT IT WAS OUR SINFUL LIVING IN THE WORLD FOR WHICH CHRIST WAS CRUCIFIED.

V. BY ACCEPTING CHRIST AS OUR SURETY, who died for us to the world, undertaking that we should die in Him.

(D. Clarkson.)
