Anyone who is in Christ is a new creation; the old has gone and the new has come


Anyone who is in Christ is a new creation; the old has gone and the new has come

2 Cor 5:17

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here!


John 1:13

12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.

Rom 6:4

We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

15 Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is the new creation.
