“Sinner Saved by Grace” or “Saint Who Struggles w/ Sin”?
August 7, 2011
Jesus-followers: Do you think you are “sinners saved by grace” or “saints who struggle w/ sin”? Consider “No Good Thing?” http://ow.ly/1vqRYe via @ransomedheart. Identity is key – who are you? Whose are you? If you have trusted Jesus as your Savior then the “old is gone; behold the new has come” (2 Corinthians 5:17) and you are a new creation in Christ. The “in Christ” part is key, and something you’ll see very often in the New Testament writings of the Apostle Paul. “In Christ” is a game changer! Getting you to focus on the old you is a deception ploy/misdirection play crafted by the enemy. Live in the now and focus on the new!
