Renew your Mind... Become a New Creation in Christ!

Yes... Renew your mind by realizing that you having been born again have the Holy Spirit in you, that means you are now made alive in Christ, a new creation. You are no longer trying to justify yourself in Him. But, crucified with Him, resurrected… transformed in spirit (ruling over your flesh) in this fallen world ... and that can only begin with renewing your mind.

Ephesians 4:23-24
to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;
and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Romans 12: 1-3 ~Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but think of yourself with sober judgment, according to the measure of faith God has given you.…

Alive in Christ
COL 2: 12-14 And having been buried with Him in baptism, you were raised with Him through your faith in the power of God, who raised Him from the dead.
When you were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our trespasses, having canceled the debt ascribed to us in the decrees that stood against us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross!…

Luke 15:24
For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!' So they began to celebrate.

Ephesians 2:1
And you were dead in your trespasses and sins,

Ephesians 2:5
made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved!

Let the Holy Spirit dwell in you… don’t quench it by having one foot in the world and one in His Kingdom! Let the power of Almighty God raise you up. Trust in Him! Pray His Will be done, seek first the Kingdom and all will be added to you.

Matthew 6:33- 34 ~ But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough trouble of its own.…

Having the Holy Spirit we can be joyful in tribulation, for we are overcomers of darkness by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony…

Which is… we have been made Alive in Christ! So understand… the gate is narrow, …Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God." Luke 9:60.

  1. We know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified" ~ Galatians 2:16.
