A new creation in Christ

2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 

Romans 8:1 NKJV There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

Grace and Church, God doesn't renovate your heart; He replaces it entirely.

When you come to Christ, you're not just an improved version of your old self; you're completely new.

The same power that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in you through the Holy Spirit. Your old guilt, your former identity, and all condemnation have passed away.

This isn't about trying harder or being more religious; it's about union with Jesus in your life wrapped up in His life, death, and resurrection.

Today, don’t strive to become someone God can use. You already are that person.

He's chosen ordinary people throughout history, and He's chosen you. Walk in the freedom of your new identity.

Grace and Peace
