Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God RATHER THAN HUMAN BEINGS! The God of our ancestors RAISED JESUS from the DEAD —whom YOU KILLED by hanging him on a cross.

WE KILLED JESUS. BECAUSE OUR SINS WAS ON HIM. SO WE DIED WITH HIM ON THE CROSS SO NOW OUR LIFE IS Hidden IN HIM.
SO WE ARE ALSO RAISED FROM OUR DEAD WORK AND ARE ALIVE IN CHRIST. WE ARE Resurrected WITH CHRIST . DAY BY DAY WE DIE TO THE WORLD AND ALIVE IN Christ JESUS.

"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us."
Romans 8:37
We go to Christ for forgiveness, and then too often look to the law for power to fight our sins. Paul thus rebukes us, "O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?" Take your sins to Christ's cross, for the old man can only be crucified there: we are crucified with him. The only weapon to fight sin with is the spear which pierced the side of Jesus. To give an illustration--you want to overcome an angry temper; how do you go to work? It is very possible you have never tried the right way of going to Jesus with it. How did I get salvation? I came to Jesus just as I was, and I trusted him to save me. I must kill my angry temper in the same way. It is the only way in which I can ever kill it. I must go to the cross with it, and say to Jesus, "Lord, I trust thee to deliver me from it." This is the only way to give it a death-blow. Are you covetous? Do you feel the world entangle you? You may struggle against this evil so long as you please, but if it be your besetting sin, you will never be delivered from it in any way but by the blood of Jesus. Take it to Christ. Tell him, "Lord, I have trusted thee, and thy name is Jesus, for thou dost save thy people from their sins: Lord, this is one of my sins; save me from it!" Ordinances are nothing without Christ as a means of mortification. Your prayers, and your repentances, and your tears--the whole of them put together--are worth nothing apart from him. "None but Jesus can do helpless sinners good;" or helpless saints either. You must be conquerors through him who hath loved you, if conquerors at all. Our laurels must grow among his olives in Gethsemane.
