Implication of Reconciliation: New Creature

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come.
2 Cor 5:17 (HCSB)

When we come to Christ we are reconciled to God.  That in and of itself is a great truth and blessing.  But what is the implication of being reconciled?

Well the first implication is that we become new creatures.  What does that mean?  It means we are new.  Paul writes, that the old passes away and that new things come.

We are new!  Do you feel new?  Are you allowing the old things to pass away (die) and the new things to grow in you?  Give God the freedom to work in you and work things out of you.  That is the awesome gift of reconciliation!

Be new today!
