As He is So Are We - New Creation Worship The resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ is more important than Christmas. It ends the old order of creation (sons of Adam) and marks the beginning of a new creation in Christ. Romans 4:25 - Jesus was raised from the dead, which tells us that we have been justified. “who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.” (Romans 4:25 NKJV) John 3:3 - All believers have gone through a spiritual rebirth. “Jesus answered him, “Most certainly, I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”” (John 3:3 WEB) John 3:16 - God loves the whole world so much that He gave us Jesus as the payment for all our sins. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 WEB) Romans 6:23 - Not just physical death, but also spiritual death: being cast into everlasting fire which the Bible calls “the second death”—forever separated from God. “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23 WEB) 2 Peter 3:9 - God’s heart is for all to be saved. He does not want any to perish and be eternally separated from Him. “The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9 WEB) Why didn’t God just stop man from sinning? When you create someone with free choice, you must give him the right to exercise that free choice. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was an option for man to choose. Free choice would be a farce if there was no option to exercise the free choice. Adam chose to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God had already told Adam about the consequences of eating from that tree. The curse came upon this world because of sin and that’s why we see sickness and death today. 1 Corinthians 15:26 - God calls death an enemy. “The last enemy that will be abolished is death.” (1 Corinthians 15:26 WEB) Man was separated from God because of sin. Genesis 3:15 - Jesus crushed the serpent’s (Satan) head at the cross. “I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.”” (Genesis 3:15 WEB)
