Have old things passed away?
2 Cor. 5 ; 15-17
He died for all people so that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for the one who died and rose for them. So then, from now on we do not think of anyone from a human point of view.
Even if we did think of Christ from a human point of view, we do not think of him that way anymore. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.
Old things have disappeared, and—look!—all things have become new!
I think sometimes we get so excited about being in Christ and delivered from our old way of life, that we miss 2 very important truths. 1. we now live for Him, and 2 we no longer know one another after the flesh.
Have we used our freedom to do whatever we want, and therefore forgetting to whom we must live our lives. Are we seeing people after the spirit, or are we still walking with people in our flesh.
Food for thought.
Grace on your journey.
