Jun 5, 2018 – New Creatures in Christ
Today, Pastor Matt discusses what it means to be a New Creature in Christ.
- New Creation works its way out of your mind and into your actions
- This does not take away our emotions but rather it sanctifies them and makes them servant to the purposes of God — including but not limited to our anger
- Illustration was made of Numbers 25:1-13 and the ”anger” of Eph. 4:26 is shown to be a quality found in God in 1 Kings 15:30, 2 Kings 23:26, Neh. 9:18, and Jer. 21:5
- We are commanded to aggressively take off Fallen Adam’s headship over us and take upon ourselves Jesus’ headship and invited into a right way of being God’s humans.
(Numbers 25:1-13; Ephesians 4:26; 1 Kings 15:30; 2 Kings 23:26; Nehemiah 9:18, and Jeremiah 21:5)
