Facts For Now!

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’re certain truths about the new creation which, as Christians, 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’re not going to be a new creation when you get to heaven; you’re a new creation now! Your new life started the day you made Jesus Lord of Your life.
