The "with Christ" Motif in Paul's Thought

The "with Christ" Motif in Paul's Thought

  • Semi-Technical
  • John D. Harvey

In this article Harvey makes a distinction between the "with Christ" and "in Christ" motifs as used by the apostle Paul. In studies when the "with Christ" concept is addressed, it is frequently associated with Paul's eschatology. This essay wants to examine the available data and reach some conclusions about how Paul uses the phrase. Texts examined include: Romans 6:4-8; Romans 8:17; 2 Corinthians 13:4; Colossians 2:12-13; Ephesians 2:4-6; Philippians 1:23; Philippians 3:10, 21; Colossians 3:1-4; 1 Thessalonians 4:14, 17; 1 Thessalonians 5:10; 2 Timothy 2:11-13.
