Therefore, from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him thus no longer. Therefore if any man be in Christ he is a new creature old things have past away now everything have become new.

Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation. The word "BE" is to have real existence; as dummy subject to. Unintelligent person or unfuctional. Just like a robot made by man to do the work of a man in his absence or why just supervising. So also human's are created by God in His own image and after His likeness and breath on him the breath of life and Man became a living being. Just to function also like God in His place here on planet Earth in every of His attributes. In the Bible book of Genesis chapter number (2:7) , the word of God says that, And 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 being, instantly man became like God to do everything like God according to the ability God gave to each one.

Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden

He created them male and female created He them and give them the ability as co- creator, and in the new testament God confirmed it to for the sake of those who will say, that this is a new eral, in the Bible book of Ephesians charpter number (2:10), the word says, For we are His work manship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. That is tell us that before now he has made every thing possible for you and I to function like Him.. every thing you are herering now from the preachers or you read yourself from the scripture, what the men of old did, is to prpere your mind of what God has given us from the beginning of creation, which He expect those who believe in Him should manifest nas co-creator in Christ Jesus.

The church house

For one to be in church, is for one to be a church, my brothers and sisters, are you in church because others are there, are you in church today because your parents are going to that church, are you in church just because you just want to identify yourself with one, are you in church just for miracles ? Nor are you in church because that is God's purpose and will for you, and that you have made up your mind to love Him by keeping His command. As a new man or woman, boy or girl, as to fulfill His purpose. The new life distinguishes a serious Christian' from the Christian's in (quote). The new life strengthens our relationship with the God head, and give us the power to rule over the devil and all his agents. Just as He says in the Bible book of Act of the Apostles chapter number (1:8). That But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be a witness to Me in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria and to the end of the earth. Every man created by God is entitled to this power, but can only activate this when you have received Him Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, for He says that to them that receive Him and believe in His name to them He give power to become the son of God.

How can we know.

1 Even though there is no physical Chang in your person's , you are now Spiritually alive, you are no more Spiritual corpse. In first John chapter number (4 :12-13) the word of God says that, No one has seen God at any time, if we love one another God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us , because He has given us of His Spirit. You will still be who you are, your stature your colour, but everything about your character changes from the old man to the new man in Christ, manifesting the power of God and not of the devil any more.

2 You have a new identity in Christ, you are no longer a slave to sin, but a son of God, who has the power to resist sin. In the Bible book of first Corinthians charpter number (9:27), Paul was saying that, But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection lest when I have preached to others I myself should become disqualified. God has given us His grace, which has apaer to all men, helping men to say no to ungodliness.

3 There is no more record of yours confessed sins and such should live a life free from the old. In the Bible book of second Corinthians charpter number (5:21), the word of God says that, For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God bin Him. And it clears us in Galatians chapter number 5:1 and it says that, Stand therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a joke of bondage. You are free completely from every sin you sincerely confess to God, provided you don't go back to it again.

King Solomon on his thrown

4 You are a King, thus have authority over every thing God created, that which the first man Adam lost, have been restored in Christ. That is why the Bible book of first John chapter number (5:4-5 says that, For whatever is born of God overcome the world. And this is the victory that have overcome the world our faith. Who is he who overcome the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the son of God. Any time you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, authomatically you carries every thing about Him. In all ramifications of life.

5 You are a priest of God and as such have direct access to God. In the Bible book of Ephesians charpter number 2:14-18, the word of God says that,. He Himself is our peace who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation. Having abolished in his flesh the enmity that is the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself the new man from the two, thus making peace. And that He may reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. For through Him we both have access by one Spirit of the Father.

6 You are a heavenly citizen, and such a pilgrim on earth, therefore you should not be conformed to the standard of this world. Just as is said in the Bible book of first Corinthians charpter number 3:9&10 And it says that, For we are God's fellow workers, you are God's field, you are God's building, According to the grace of God which was given to me as a wise master buider, I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it, but let each one take heed how he biulds on it.

Obstacles ;-

Jesus on the stormy sea

Obstacles to living the new life will always abound, but a decision to live to live the new life is the key to surmounting there obstacles, in the Bible book of Philippians charpter number 3:7-10), and it says that,. But what things were gain to me, these things I have counted lost for Christ. Yet indeed I also coout all things loss for the Excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. For whom I have surgery the loss of all things and count them as rubbish that I may gain Christ, And be found in him not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; That I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings being confirmed to his death. the word of God says that the grace of God has apered to all men helping us to say no to ungodliness.

The book of the Act of the Apostles, is indeed a book of proof-producers, of those who worked the narrow path physically and Spiritually with the master and have experience to share. They have the experience that should chanllenge the contemporary believers, and of course, God's expectation of a new man. As a minister, a worker, or a leader, there are a lot for you to know in Acts charpter number 2:14-47. The new man must be a vessel unto honour in anointing to heal. In Acts charpter number 3:1-9. And in power of Evangelism in Acts charpter number 4:7-14. And to promptly discern and judge iniquity and keep sanity in the body of Christ Acts charpter number 5:1-11, And in signs and wonders Acts charpter number 5:12, and 6:8. and to bear fruit that will abide Acts charpter number 14:1, and John chapter number 14:16. Paul said to Timothy Study to show yourself approved a workman' who is not ashamed of the gospel, but rightly divide the word of truth. My dear decide today to operate in a powerful and proof- producing ministry, get connected to the Author and the finisher of our faith, the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you for reading and may the Lord bless you in Jesus name.

Nice on sir, many of us today do not really know the reasons why we should be in Church, some belivers to are in Church because they are use to it, they have been going to church for long so its part of them but there is no personal relationship with God. Some attend church based on the faith and experience of their parents or love ones
