“Be Transformed…
…from the dirt”
II Corinthians 5:17If anyone is IN Christ…
‘In’ is different than ‘With’
John 15:4“Abide in Me, and I in you.
As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, so neither fan you unless
you abide in Me.”
Transformation is possible when plugged in
Galatians 3:27All who were baptized into Christ have clothed
yourselves with Christ.
We live because we are In Christ.
II Corinthians 5:17If anyone is in Christ,…the old things passed
away…
Some things need to ‘pass away’
John 15:2“Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch in me that bears fruit, He prunes, so that it will bear more fruit.”
A cutting away is necessary for good.
Colosians 3:3For you have died and your life is hidden
with Christ in God.
Transformation requires a death
II Corinthians 5:17If anyone is in Christ,
he is a new creature; the old
things have passed away; behold, new things have come.
New things come if you are in.
Romans 6:4We have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too
might walk in newness of life.
Our goal is a better life
Colosians 4:2Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert
In it with an attitude of thanksgiving.
A better life begins with a better attitude
“Be Transformed”
~ A grateful mind ~
