30. THE END

31. Romans 6:4, A New Creation,
GotQuestions.org
• Question: "Who am I in Christ?"
Answer: According to 2 Corinthians 5:17, “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” There are two Greek words
which are translated “new” in the Bible. The first, neos, refers to something that has just been made, but there are already many others in existence
just like it. The word translated “new” in this verse is the wordkainos, which means “something just made which is unlike anything else in existence.” In
Christ, we are made an entirely new creation, just as God created the heavens and the earth originally—He made them out of nothing, and so He does
with us. He does not merely clean up our old selves; He makes an entirely new self. When we are in Christ, we are “partakers of the divine nature” (2
Peter 1:4 KJV). God Himself, in the person of His Holy Spirit, takes up residence in our hearts. We are in Christ and He is in us.
In Christ, we are regenerated, renewed, and born again, and this new creation is spiritually minded, whereas the old nature is carnally minded. The
new nature fellowships with God, obeys His will, and is devoted to His service. These are actions the old nature is incapable of doing or even desiring to
do. The old nature is dead to the things of the spirit and cannot revive itself. It is “dead in trespasses and sins” (Ephesians 2:1) and can only be made
alive by a supernatural awakening, which happens when we come to Christ and are indwelt by Him. Christ gives us a completely new and holy nature
and an incorruptible life. Our old life, previously dead to God because of sin, is buried, and we are raised “to walk in newness of life” with Him (Romans
6:4).
If we belong to Christ, we are united to Him and no longer slaves to sin (Romans 6:5-6); we are made alive with Him (Ephesians 2:5); we are conformed
to His image (Romans 8:29); we are free from condemnation and walking not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit (Romans 8:1); and we
are part of the body of Christ with other believers (Romans 12:5). The believer now possesses a new heart (Ezekiel 11:19) and has been blessed “with
every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 1:3).
We might wonder why we so often do not live in the manner described, even though we have given our lives to Christ and are sure of our salvation.
This is because our new natures are residing in our old fleshly bodies, and these two are at war with one another. The old nature is dead, but the new
nature still has to battle the old “tent” in which it dwells. Evil and sin are still present, but the believer now sees them in a new perspective and they no
longer control him as they once did. In Christ, we can now choose to resist sin, whereas the old nature could not. Now we have the choice to either
feed the new nature through the Word, prayer, and obedience, or to feed the flesh by neglecting those things.
When we are in Christ, “we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us” (Romans 8:37) and can rejoice in our Savior, who makes all things
possible (Philippians 4:13). In Christ we are loved, forgiven, and secure. In Christ we are adopted, justified, redeemed, reconciled, and chosen. In Christ
we are victorious, filled with joy and peace, and granted true meaning in life. What a wonderful Savior is Christ!

32. Romans 6:22, Salvation, Sanctification
• NAU Acts 27:31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Unless these men remain in the ship, you yourselves cannot be saved."
• Today is October 25, 2013, Verse of the Day -- Psalm 25:5 Thou art the God of my salvation . . .
• THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
• We sin, God saves.
• MINI BIBLE STUDY FOR THE DAY
• Salvation means several things in the Bible. There is
• salvation from sicknessIs anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer
offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. —James 5:14-15
• salvation from deathFor You have delivered my soul from death,
Indeed my feet from stumbling,
So that I may walk before God
In the light of the living. —Psalm 56:13
• salvation from dangerThen the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal, saying, "Do not abandon your servants; come up to us quickly and save us and help us, for all the
kings of the Amorites that live in the hill country have assembled against us." So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him and all the valiant warriors. The LORD
said to Joshua, "Do not fear them, for I have given them into your hands; not one of them shall stand before you." —Joshua 10:6-8
See also Hosea 13:10.
• salvation from God's wrathand to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come. —1 Thessalonians 1:10
• and even salvation from false doctrineUntil I come, give attention to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation and teaching. Do not neglect the spiritual gift within you, which was
bestowed on you through prophetic utterance with the laying on of hands by the presbytery. Take pains with these things; be absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to
all. Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in these things, for as you do this you will ensure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you. —
1 Timothy 4:13-16
• But the most important salvation is from sin. We are justified from our pastNow that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, "THE RIGHTEOUS MAN SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."
However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, "HE WHO PRACTICES THEM SHALL LIVE BY THEM." Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us - for it is
written, "CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE" - in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit
through faith. —Galatians3:11-14
See also Romans 3:21-4:12.we are presently sanctifiedBut now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome,
eternal life. —Romans 6:22
See also 1 Corinthians 6:11, 2 Thessalonians 2:13, and 2 Timothy 2:21.and in the future we will be glorifiedand if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we
suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us.
. . . and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified. —Romans 8:17-18, 30
See also 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.. . . for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. —Romans 10:10
• . . . I will rejoice in the God of my salvation. —Habakkuk 3:18

33. Romans 6:23, Saved By Grace, Not By
Works
• QUESTION FOR THE DAY
• Dear Compass,
• (Regarding "saved by grace, not by works")
• What about the verse in the Bible that says "the wages of sin are death"? Are you saying a believer
could continually sin, and die in sin, and still be with Jesus for eternity?
•
ANSWER:
• Yes. First, you're only quoting the first half of the above verse. Romans 6:23 continues on to say,
• . . . BUT, the FREE gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.Jesus paid for those "wages of sin"
on the cross—all of them—past, present and future.
• Second, if you say a believer would go to hell for sinning, then you're also saying a believer must
NOT sin in order to go to heaven—therefore, he is being saved by what he does, not what Jesus did
on the cross! And the Bible is clear: "NOT BY WORKS"!
• For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not
as a result of works, that no one should boast. —Ephesians 2:8-9
• He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His
mercy . . . —Titus 3:5
• Interestingly, your question about "total grace" was asked in the early church and Paul responded:
• What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace might increase? May it never be! How
shall we who died to sin still live in it? —Romans 6:1-2
