A New Creature!
Welcome, greetings friend!
Now walking with the Lord we come across a new way of living, thinking, and perceiving life. We are not longer living for self, but for Jesus Christ. As a result, we have become new creature I Christ!
1) Why have I become a new creature?
Once we have truly repented and come to Jesus Christ we don't want to recall sin, but rather rebuke it!
Ephesians 2:1-7 KJV
And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
2) How have I become a new creature?
You might wonder and say. I'm already a grown up. How is it possible for me to become a different person.
2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
3) How is this possible?
Romans 8:1 KJV
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
4) So I belong to Jesus Christ?
Yes, Jesus paid the price for the sins of the world!
Romans 8:9 KJV
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
5) Can anyone become a new creature through Jesus Christ?
Certainly so. Jesus Christ died to save all nations, cultures, and people.
Galatians 3:28 KJV
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
6) When was this established?
Remember, we are THE Almighty GOD's children and He has always wanted His creation to have access to His grace, mercy, power, and wisdom through His Son Jesus Christ!
Ephesians 1:3-5 KJV
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will..
7) How can I keep worthy of His grace and eternal love?
As humans beings our flesh is weak. We are always tempted with manifold sins and what not. However, in other to overcome the lust of this world - we must come to the throne of grace on a daily basis and ask our heavenly father for spiritual strength, obedience, and grace..
Psalm 51:10 KJV
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
