This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT
If you are wearing a water resistant watch and it starts to rain, will you fear rain? No why.? Because your watch is water resistant. The same way, we don't fear, for after baptism we became a new person not subject to elemental forces of this world. The Bible says "For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God" (1 Peter 1:23 NLT)
It doesn't matter what comes our way, we count it all joy even when we go through trials, Why? Our new life is a life of unending victory. The Bible says "you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.(1 John 4:4 NLT)
That is why we don't define ourselves by our troubles, because we operate under the principles of our new nature, the law of Spirit of life. Which tells us here that "Our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever." (2 Corinthians 4:17-18 NLT)
WE BLESS YOU GOD THE LOVING FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, FOR YOU HAVE RAISED US TO A NEW LIFE WITH CHRIST, WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO LIVE THIS NEW LIFE IN CHRIST TO YOUR GLORY IN JESUS NAME AMEN!
THANK YOU JESUS!
