“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old
things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”~ 2 Corinthians 5:17
We all like new things. New
shoes, new clothes, new cars, new houses, new jobs, new relationships, and the
like. Why? Because new things imply the idea of a fresh start. They are clean
and unsoiled. Kids love to get a new pair of shoes after they have worn out
their old ones from playing in them. Our old lives were soiled, abused, and
worn out beyond repair. But in Christ you are
new.
If you are a true believer, God has not just
improved your old life. He has made you new! This is why a saved person can
come out of anything that formerly enslaved them. Christ has made you a new
person with a new mind. Everything about you has been changed. The life you
used to live is just that. Through the power of the
Holy Spirit you can walk in newness of life.
