From Romans 6:4: “Therefore we have been buried with Him by baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.”

Are we truly walking in Christ?
With a new life, born again
Follow Jesus, He paid our price
True sanctification will come
Only from burial of an old life
Known as “white funeral” to some
Baptized into Christ, the Holy Son
Baptized into His death
With His death, victory is won
Through the confirmed Resurrection
We humbly come to a Holy God
His defining purpose, brings reflection
God is leading, always out front
Facing trying times of adversity
Our duty shall be, always to confront
Come to almighty and loving God
Sanctify a promise with the Father
God’s will be done, by His rod
When Christ forever defeats the Cross
His lasting, living Resurrection offers
“Walking in newness of life,” without loss
To Jesus, surrender these sinful ways
Hear Him, accept Him, follow Him
Ask for His forgiveness, without delay
Mighty God of angel armies leads
His righteousness marches with us
Filling a hungry soul, His Word feeds
Freed from sin, obedient to God
Wages of sin only bring death
Accept Jesus, He overcomes all odds

From the words of Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher Oswald Chambers: “No one enters the experience of entire sanctification without going through a “white funeral”–the burial of the old life.”
