DAILY QUIET TIME COMPANION
THE IDENTITY OF A MAN IN CHRIST
2 Corinthians 5:17-21
Verse 17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
Christianity is not a religion but a life transformation experience in Christ, it means you’re no more the same person people use to know, you are now a change person, old life style is gone, old thought disappeared, old acts vanished, you can no more behave like before.
In our text, the bible says OLD things are passed away and all things are become NEW.
Not that old things are renewed, amended or repaired but they are deleted to give way to new things. E. G new thoughts, new behaviors, new actions, e.t.c.
Beloved reader, if you are yet to surrender your life to Jesus, you can’t be a partaker of this glorious experience until you give your entire life to Jesus and you can do that now if you wish to, just confess your sins to him, forsake all and ask him to take away your old life and give you a new one in Christ.
If you have sincerely done that I welcome you to the family of Christ.
And to the new creatures he said you have been given the work of reconciliation.
2Corinthians 5:18 “And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation.”
Are you sincerely doing this work? If not, you can start this morning as you are stepping out to go to your place of work.
I pray to the Almighty God to give you power and grace to do the work, in Jesus name.
Good morning, have a great day ahead.
Pst. M. Femi Olafare
