“I’ve got a shared life,” He said, as I’ll show you a little later on from Scripture. Jesus had a shared life. We have a shared life, a united life. Christ in you, we in Him, that’s the other side of it.
I can’t say this moment that my mind can compass it. I in Him. He in me. I can’t say I can compass it. I’ve spent hours seeking to compass it—perhaps I haven’t sufficient light yet. Thank God, I know I know it. In other words, I know Him! I can see a little. Brothers, the Cross is not the centre and is not the objective. This is the centre and objective. The Cross is the gateway. The Cross isn’t the end; the Christ is the end. And the Christ is this One—joined to me forever and I am joined to Him forever. There are astounding statements in God’s Word.

Norman Grubb (1895 - 1993)
Read freely text sermons and articles by the speaker Norman Grubb in text and pdf format.Was a British Christian missionary, writer, and theological teacher. Despite having a Christian upbringing it was only at the age of eighteen that Grubb seriously began to consider what it meant to be a Christian. It was a conversation with a family friend that challenged him to think more deeply about his faith, and from that point on he became committed to evangelistic work. While recovering from his bullet wound in 1917 Grubb was handed a tract about the Heart of Africa Mission and the work of C.T. Studd in the Belgian Congo. After reading this tract he felt a calling to join Studd in his missionary activities.After Studd’s death in 1931, it was learned that he had left a letter appointing Grubb as president of the ministry he had founded, World Evangelisation Crusade (W.E.C., WEC International), in place of himself. Grubb however thought it would be better to be called secretary instead. W.E.C. grew from one mission field with 35 workers to a worldwide mission operating in over 40 fields with thousands of workers from around the world, all living according to the principle that all needs will be supplied by God with no appeals to man. The mission continues to this day under the name of Worldwide Evangelization for Christ.
