First grammar info I remember learning about a preposition is never end a sentence with one! Not to worry that rule is now obsolete but I imagine that change would have Miss Rosa Nourse roll over in horror.
Remember those very small words which can show direction, or location. Functional words as Merriam-Webster says most often combining with a noun to make a phrase for modification or prediction.
All of these observations became so clear as I read and re-read yesterday's New Morning Mercies March 27 entry.
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. (Galatians 2:20)
Check out the prepositions in the above verse…….each can be important in your understanding of the truth.
Crucified with Christ---He took our names to the cross on our behalf, a redemptive historical fact.
Christ lives in me---present redemptive reality
I live by faith in the Son who died for me---life shaping result
Proof positive in the life of a Christian.
