The Christ-life demands that we walk worthy of His presence through the sanctifying power of the Spirit.

• A. Christ-life
• B. Covenant-life
• C. Spiritual-life
• D. God-life

Answer: (A)

The main idea is living life Christ-style, animated by the Spirit’s sanctifying work. Christ-life names the believer’s experience of Christ living in and through us, shaping our character and conduct so we can walk in a manner worthy of His presence. The Spirit’s sanctifying power is what changes us from the inside, producing Christlike love, obedience, and righteousness in daily life.

Covenant-life emphasizes the relationship or agreement with God rather than the transforming, Christ-centered way we live; spiritual-life is too general and doesn’t specify Christ’s life within us; God-life points to God’s own life rather than the believer’s lived experience of Christ in the Spirit. So the term that best expresses this lived, Spirit-enabled imitation of Christ is Christ-life.
