Made New | Baptism Sunday

Made New | Pastor Jon Adams

 

In 2 Corinthians 5:17 we read, “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, this person is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.” At Renew, we like to use a phrase based on this scripture on Baptism Sundays: “I have been made new.”  But what does that mean?
 
In his devotional, Pastor Jon unpacks how, once we have accepted Christ into our hearts, we have a new identity. We are a new creation, not because of anything we’ve done, not because we deserve it, but because of Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
