2 Corinthians 7:3
I do not say this to condemn you. I have said before that you so occupy our hearts that we live and die together with you.
Philippians 1:7
It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart. For in my chains and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partners in grace with me.
*Strong's Ex. Conc. No. 4880
Die Together: die with
From the Greek word 'sunapothnéskó' (pronounced soon-ap-oth-nace'-ko).
It is the same meaning as given in 2 Timothy 2:11 "This is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him." (meeting death as Christ did for the sake of God). And what happened when Christ met death? He overcame it! Therefore, we who believe on the Name of Jesus Christ for our salvation shall also overcome death!
We are partners in grace with Christ and with each other. For we are one in Christ Who is One in God, as He prayed in John 17:20-23. This whole prayer in John 17 is just beautiful.
As believers, we are united with each other via the Holy Spirit of God. We live in harmony with one another.
-Romans 12:16
-Romans 15:5
We work together in the kingdom of God. Ephesians 4:4-14
We grow together in love. Ephesians 4:15,16
We pray together in faith. James 5:16
We pray together in the Spirit. Jude 1:20
We are the body of Christ. Where His body went when He had a physical body is where His body will go in the power of the Holy Spirit. As He lived and died, so, too, will the body of Christ live and die. And live again.
