NOW ANEW:

"Therefore if any man be in Christ he is a new creation; old things are passed away, behold all things are become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)

There are certain truths about the new creation which, as a Christian, we must be conscious of and live by. These are not promises but established truths in God's Word-present hour realities. One of such is our opening verse above. When you received Christ into your life you became a new creation. "If any man be in Christ, he "is" a new creation." "Is" is a "now" word-a present hour reality. You are not going to be a new creation when you get to heaven, you are a new creation now. Your new life started the day you made Jesus Lord of your life.

An important truth in our Kingdom is about the Word as God's cleansing material and agent of change. Jesus said in (John 15:3), "Now ye are clean through the Word which I have spoken unto you." It doesn't matter the depth of a man's sin, if he would give attention to God's Word, he will be cleansed. God's Word cleanses your system of all unrighteousness and every anomaly, sickness and diseases inclusive.

Another of such glorious realities is that we are heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ. "And if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if so be that we suffer with Him that we may be also glorified together" (Romans 8:17). To be a joint heir with Christ means everything that belongs to Him, also belongs to you, in the same way and degree that it belongs to Him. Both of you own everything hundred per cent together. Therefore, like Him, you have also been appointed heir of all things. No wonder Paul said, "...all things are yours" (1 Corinthians 3:21).

The Lord Jesus took your place of sin and condemnation that you might become the righteousness of God in Christ. Now, you are one with Him, having His life and nature in your spirit. these and ore are present hour realities of who you are and your placement in Christ. Study the Word to know more and take a hold of your inheritance in Christ.
