2 Co 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Salvation is a radical change both within and without. Salvation involves action on our part in repentance and faith, but salvation also involves a divine work by God as well. We are indeed a new creature, a new creation, alive with spiritual life. We have turned from the old life of pleasing our self to a new life of love and gratitude toward God. We have a new perspective that changes everything. We are alive to spiritual realities. This is the salvation of the Bible. We live in a time of much religion, but not enough true salvation. Don’t settle for anything less than real salvation.
