2Cor.5.17

God put the world square with himself through the Messiah, giving the world a fresh start by offering forgiveness of sins. God has given us the task of telling everyone what he is doing.

2Cor.5.17

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

2Cor.5.17

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

2Cor.5.17

What this means is that those who become Christians become new persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone. A new life has begun!
