New Life, New Beginning
Speaker : Pst. Manoj Arunkumar
When you're identified with Christ, you start walking in Christian faith and that's when you'll have the right to assemble with God's people.
Matthew 28:19
If you want to identify with Christ you have to recognise the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If you don't have the recognition you cannot partake in the body and blood of Christ
* REQUIREMENTS FOR A NEW LIFE
(1) Know that your God is a holy God.
Isaiah 6:3
God is holy and we need to become holy like him. If you want to start a new life, you should understand that God is holy and he expects us to be holy too.
Why do we need a new life? Why do we need God?
In the beginning there was no sin and before the beginning there was no sin. Holiness was the Kingdom of God, God's way, desire of God, thought of God and blessings of God.
God is holy and God created man in the holy image of Himself.
When God formed man, His holy hands formed him, His holy breath was inside him and that's when he became a human, ie. a holy being.
Where there's light, there's darkness. If there's a God then there's the Devil too! The devil is unholy and he always wants to corrupt the holy image of God.
The serpent deceived the woman. Anything that happens in the world that disturbs you it isn't from God but from the devil. The devil knows the holiness of heaven, but he no longer has the power in heaven.
(2) Know the sin of Adam and Eve.
Genesis 3:6-7
The eyes of Adam and Eve was opened by the devil! When the eyes are open for sin, everything of the world becomes desirable.
Somebody leading you to sin just as the devil led the woman to sin. The devil led her to see sin, not to commit it. The tree looked desirable to her; desire conceives sin in your mind which leads to the action of actually sinning.
The devil was trying to tell Eve that God is a fool, but she was made in God's image and God is already wise. He was trying to deceive her by saying that she'll become wise if she eats the fruit.
The work of the Devil is to leave you naked. Seraphims put their wings on their eyes and they cry out together about the holiness of God.
Man and Woman became naked without the glory of God. There was no holiness left in their mind. They hid themselves because of his presence, yet they recognised His voice. You may feel that nobody knows what you're doing but God knows, he's watching.
"Who says that you're naked?" That's when the blame game starts because now they know what's good and evil; they know the truth and lies.
(3) Know that we are all sinners.
Ecclesiastics 7:20
Jeremiah 17:5
Romans 3:23
* Way for a new Life.
(1) New life is based on Christ's death.
Romans 6:23
The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life. A person who sins cannot have eternal life. No matter how much you sin, your wages will ultimately be death. The Gift of God is not death but Eternal Life. If you want to begin a new life, you need the free gift, Jesus in your life
Colossians 1:22
By death, Jesus took all our sins on his body, to present you holy and blameless in the sight of God. Jesus Christ is the gift from heaven by God. New life is based on Christ's death.
(2) New life is received by faith.
Acts 16:31
To have the way of new life, you need to receive the gift of God which is Jesus Christ. New life is based on believing and receiving Jesus by faith.
* Results of a New life
(1) Everlasting life
John 5:24
When you receive God's word, you'll have no judgement on you. You'll pass from death into life and you'll have eternal life.
(2) New creation
2 Corinthians 5:17-18
Jesus is presenting Adam with His glory. "I am in Adam"
When Jesus hugs Adam, God sees his back and his stripes and Jesus says that he's presenting Adam as holy and pure. Jesus pleads for mercy over us. And God proclaims from heaven, "WHOEVER BELIEVES IN JESUS, HE WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE AND WILL NEVER PERISH."
When God sees you, he sees you through the stripes of Jesus.
The old things have passed away and the glory of God has returned. Now, you are inheriting the new nature of Jesus.
Jesus is inside you now, and when you sin, God sees the Jesus inside you and takes the sin out of you.
You have the new nature of God, reconciled in God.
(3) Glory of God
Isaiah 61:10
When the glory of God is gone, there's no joy, righteousness and love. When you have a new nature, you'll inherit the righteousness of Christ Jesus.
The glory has returned!
Since you have the new nature of God, Jesus is seen though you.
(4) You will be placed into God's family.
1 John 3:2
(5) You will be empowered by God.
* ASSURANCES OF GOD
Titus 1:2
1 John 3:24
The spirit of God will start witnessing about you. You'll abide in Christ and Christ will abide in you.
1 Corinthians 6:11
It shows that you have a changed life due to the assurance of God.
Thank God for people who irritate us, because we're gonna be like Hannah, finally giving birth to Samuel. ❤
