WALKING IN GRACE: A BRAND NEW YOU!

Review from last week

Humanism is the worst heresy in the present

day church.

To show grace is to extend favor or kindness to one

who doesn’t deserve it, who can never earn it and who

can never repay it.

There is nothing you can do to make God

love you less and nothing you can do to

make God love you more.

“Without faith it is impossible to please

God.”

Is your walk of discipleship made up of you trying to do things for Christ?

or in allowing Christ to do things IN and THROUGH you?

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has

come!

To be in Jesus is not only an outward

profession, but also an inward change of heart and indwelling of His

Holy Spirit.

"Depart from me, I do not know you, you

workers of iniquity."

Do you feel that God accepts you as you

are?

In our society we have been programmed to believe that identity is

INSEPARABLE from behavior.

But God determines identity by BIRTH.

You now have a spirit that is alive.

“For in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own

poets have said, ‘For we are also His

offspring.’” (Acts 17:28)

Old things are passed away

Regenerating grace creates a new

creation.

new life

new senses

new affections

new appetites

new ideas

new opinions

new pleasures

new desires

Not improved but brand new

Not a new version of older model but a brand new model

Not turning over a new leaf but starting

a brand new life
