11:42:00 AM | OCT 7 CHANGING YOUR SPIRITUAL DNA--PART TWO... 2 CORINTHIANS 5:16-21 16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come (e.g. spiritual regenerationnjc note): The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting peoples sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christs ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christs behalf: Be reconciled to God. 21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. (NJC Note: It can be stated no plainer. Christ has reconciled those who come to Him for spiritual regeneration by being born again (John 3:7, 3-16, 3-17) and being restored back to God so that their unregenerated sin nature is now null and void through Christ. As sin came into the world through one man, mans sin nature was taken out for those who accept the gift of redemption through Christ Jesus. Praise God, the sin debt is pre-paid!). Oswald Chambers discusses this topic of reconciliation today at The Nature Of Reconciliation P.S. Dont forget to Pray the Promise, not the Problem at Scripture Promises
