Bible Verse of The Day – 12-16-13

Colossians 3:3 (NKJV) For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

If you are a follower of Christ, you have died.

Your former life has passed away and you are now hidden with Christ, in God.

When we reach the point in our life where we understand that we are lost, full of sin, and in need of God’s forgiveness and salvation, we are then ready to die (spiritually), to let God take our old self and bury it, and raise us up in His newness.

As we do this, we are now hidden with Christ. Our former life is no longer a part of who we are. It is a part of who we were.

The enemy can no longer accuse us of those past sins. They are gone; washed away. They are willingly forgotten by God and cast into His sea of forgetfulness, never to be seen again.

Stop struggling with those sins that were a part of your life before Christ (B.C.). Stop wrestling with guilt and condemnation over those things that were part of the old you. You are not that person any longer.

2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV) Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

For you have died. And your life is now hidden with Christ, in God.
