"Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
2 Corinthians 5:17
The more our hearts bow down in meditation upon the eternal and heavenly and spiritual things of Him the more we are brought face to face with the wonderful truth enunciated by the apostle Paul to the saints in Ephesus: "For WE ARE HIS HANDIWORK, created in Christ Jesus with a view to good works which God prepared beforehand. . . " (Eph. 2:10)
We are BLESSED!

babysteppin' "gets" the question.
Thank you, baby!
God had in mind and purpose realms much greater than an acknowledgement of His greatness in creation when He inspired David with those weighty words: "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork."

gwhiz,
Neither by the eloquence of words nor by the clarity of phrases can we say more plainly or more emphatically than this that the heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament shows, reveals and demonstrates the nature and purpose of God's great creative work in and through His enChristed body, the elect saints, who are the new creation in Christ Jesus of which the natural creation is merely a faint shadow and a weak picture.

Yes! We have passed from death into new life! This is a life created in Christ Jesus and maintained in Him. I am crucified with Christ, therefore I no longer live. Jesus Christ now lives in me!!
