I Exist Means Under Him I Rule and Reign

In the Greek, "I exist" means "under His Lordship, I rule and reign". It's so much more than just "existing".

In the Greek the word for 'I exist' is 'υπάρχω' (hyparcho). It is made up of two parts: hypo and archo.

Uπό (hypo) is positional, it means under: in this case, under Christ. And aρχω (archo) means to rule and reign. Therefore, under Christ, we rule and reign.

God has given us so much in Christ, it is up to us to stay under his rulership and, from that position, rule in this life.
