Participate is easiest.
Incorporation is the most difficult. -
UNION with Christ is the easiest for me to relate to because since I became united (became a Christian) with Him 8 years ago, I have experienced His blessings more than I can count. I have the Peace He gives us in knowing I am saved; knowing I have been made right with God; knowing He is with me in every crisis; knowing He has a place for me in His Kingdom; knowing my sins are forgiven and remembered no more. I am washed clean. I am a new person in Christ. I have been freed from the chains of sin of the world and from death. All of these (plus many more examples) are in that Peace that passes all understanding – the Peace Jesus said he leaves with us.
John 14:27 – “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
The term I have the most difficulty with is INCORPORATION. I know as a believer I need to fellowship with other believers, but I am a very introverted person so mingling in groups with others – even though we are all believers – is quite a struggle for me.

Participation- Because there is great commitment and sacrifice involved in participating in whatever Christ did.It involves dying daily

For me, it is ‘identification’. Since my earthly father died when I was 21 years old, and many years later, I had an experience of God while reading and praying. All I can describe is that God poured the knowledge of His fatherly goodness and care into my empty heart. I know He is my Father in heaven, and He has brought me into His family, through His dear Son, Jesus. I know God is trustworthy (the first thing He poured into me, and vital to me because my earthly father was not trustworthy) and kind, and holy – there is no darkness in Him. He’s a Father to be proud of!

Participation is the easiest for me. Once I gave my life to Jesus, I felt and still feel connected to Him.
I think identification is the hardest for me, I do stumble and fall, and though I strive to represent Christ, I feel like I fall short a lot.
