Today’s Word Of Encouragement From Wayne:
“Our adequacy is from God, who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life”
2 Corinthians 3:5-6
The only way for you and I to become the blessed “new creature” that the apostle Paul wrote of in 2 Corinthians 5:17, is through the “new covenant” that Paul first wrote of in 2 Corinthians 3:6.
Because of “the new covenant in My blood,” which our Savior spoke of Himself in Luke 22:20, you and I are most wonderfully blessed to become new creations within His New Covenant. It is as Jesus said when He spoke, “new wine must be put into fresh wineskins” (Luke 5:38).
When the kindness of God led us to repentance (Romans 2:4) and we forsook sin so we may instead “obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with His blood” (1st Peter 1:2), all through His magnificent grace, at that moment we were born again, born anew, becoming a new creation through a New Covenant, made possible specifically through the “new covenant in My blood” that our Savior shed at Calvary to atone for all sin, one sacrifice for all time.
See this great price paid, and the great New Covenant made, through the precious blood of our Savior.
I entreat you to come all the way in, to your true Christian biblical faith, by being a knowledgeable, grateful, understanding, and joyful new creation in God’s New Covenant, because this is where the life is!
Yes receive this new wine in your new wineskin.
“The letter kills” - that’s the old covenant. “But the Spirit gives life” - this is the New Covenant.
The New Covenant is Christ-centered and full of life. The old covenant is law-set-on-stone centered and kills.
Jesus fulfilled all of the requirements of the old covenant when He shed His pure, innocent, precious to Father God New Covenant blood, in order that He would save us and give us new life in His new covenant.
Today, beloved child of God, truly live, in your new life as a new creation in God's New Covenant with your risen and indwelling Savior, Jesus Christ. Hallelujah!
