The title to this chapter would likely have confused some of us a few years ago, because all we had ever heard was condemnation.Most of our great evangelists have been preachers of condemnation, preachers of judgment.Few of them have ever revealed to us what we were in Christ. They have magnified sin above redemption.Romans 8:1… Continue reading The End of Condemnation

What Does It Mean to Be a New Creation
Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and thought, why do I still feel like the same person even though I gave my life to Christ? Maybe you’ve prayed the prayer, gone to church, even read your Bible, but deep down you’re asking, if I’m a new creation, why do I still struggle… Continue reading What Does It Mean to Be a New Creation
In Christ, New Creation
If there is one verse in the entire Bible that exposes the devil’s greatest fear, it’s this one. A single sentence that, if truly believed, would dismantle centuries of religious bondage, silence guilt forever, and make every child of God unstoppable. That verse is 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he… Continue reading In Christ, New Creation
The Day You Stopped Being a Sinner
There is a day written in Heaven’s record when everything about you changed, yet many Christians live as though it never happened. They go to church, sing about grace, and pray for mercy, but in their hearts, they still see themselves as sinners struggling for acceptance. The tragedy is that this is not what God… Continue reading The Day You Stopped Being a Sinner
Infused with Christ
THE KEY TO WHAT THE NEW COVENANT IS ABOUT One of the things that I’ve noticed in the preaching of the Word, is that a great many people are missing the whole key of the New Testament, what it is all about. Maybe it’s concealed more than we are prepared to see. But so often… Continue reading Infused with Christ
Stress is a choice that you make for yourself
Stress is always an inside job. We’re in the process of learning how to put off the old man and put on the new man, the new nature of Jesus. The subject of the old nature (do we have two natures?) is a controversial subject. Some say we have two natures, and some say we… Continue reading Stress is a choice that you make for yourself
New You
One of the leading evangelists of our day has been quoted as saying that he believes only fifteen percent of professing Christians are truly born again. That’s a startling statement! I’m not sure that’s accurate, but I certainly believe that many, if not a majority, of those who call themselves Christians are not truly saved. You… Continue reading New You
We are two people
Gen2:7And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. The word life in the expression “breath of life” is chay in the Hebrew which is plural in number. When God breathed Adam’s spirit into the body he… Continue reading We are two people
The unfolding-part 3
Neither Condemned nor Intimidated GOD WANTS TO ESTABLISH A NEW NATURE, NOT REFINE AND DISCIPLINE THE HUMAN NATURE. The word says that our old man has been crucified with Christ, but as long as we have a human body, we still have two natures, the flesh and the spirit. It is only when we learn… Continue reading The unfolding-part 3
That new nature
We are pointing to the nature that we want to acquire. It is not that we condone what people do, but we are putting the focus on a different area. This is a shift away from the negativity. It is not that we do not have problems; but we see that the problems are not… Continue reading That new nature
You are not an animal
Sometimes we have desires in our hearts that do not come to pass, yet we cannot retrace our steps. It is no longer the period of time when we can go back, where we can spend days alone with God. To return to the deep quiet, that same spiritual climate where so many things came… Continue reading You are not an animal
Our rejuvenation by the Holy Spirit
How great shall be thy life, O house of the Lord. Thou shalt live by the life of thy Lord. He became that broken vessel in order that thou shalt feast upon Him and partake of Him. Yea, let there be that strength within thee, and faith that shall lay hold upon the Lord, upon… Continue reading Our rejuvenation by the Holy Spirit
Resurrection life
This is the day the Lord has many things for us, and we shouldn’t think about them in terms of the distant future. A few generations ago people were absorbed morbidly with the idea of death. England in those days was engrossed with this idea. There was great oppression. They didn’t have to be certain… Continue reading Resurrection life
His handiwork
Was there not a day in which the Lord did speak to His prophet: Thou shalt not judge by the outward appearance for the Lord looketh upon the heart. And thus shall the Lord show the person that is after His own heart. Behold, how people can judge falsely, but thou shalt not so judge.… Continue reading His handiwork
How God sees us
God sees things from an eternal perspective; He sees things different than we do. He sees the beginning from the end. He sees the finished product. It is important that we begin to see things the way that God does. What does God actually see when He looks at us? He sees a reflection of… Continue reading How God sees us
His reflection
Our human nature is unacceptable to God. We were born in sin, we inherited a fallen nature. We can’t bring to God what we are as a human being and say, Lord I am doing the best I can, will You please accept this old nature. That which is born of the flesh is flesh.… Continue reading His reflection
Becoming a spirit opener
True Christianity is the greatest adventure a person could ever have, it is a journey into the very heart of God where we experience Him in such a way, that His thoughts become our thoughts, His feelings become our feelings, the very essence of His being penetrates us so that we become a new creation… Continue reading Becoming a spirit opener
New creation
Throughout the bible we see how Satan has tried to destroy the seed of the woman. That same spirit is at work in the earth today. Finally, this seed of the woman found its way down to a young unmarried girl called Mary. This girl encountered the Holy Spirit in a unique way. LUKE 1:35… Continue reading New creation
You must be born again
John 3:3Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again (From above) he cannot see (specific point in time, sudden climatic experience, implying not the mere act of seeing but the actual perception of the kingdom, “‘to experience, encounter, participate in the kingdom) the kingdom (the… Continue reading You must be born again
