Who We Are in Christ by Joe McIntyre

Many in the Church today struggle with a sense of unworthiness and inadequacy. They are aware of all their weaknesses and shortcomings. They have very little confidence toward God because they think He regards them in the light of their failures, or, perhaps we should, the darkness that yet remains in their performance. God has changed the nature of man! The greatest miracle that God does is the New Birth. God, our Father, takes out of us the nature that was antagonistic to Him by sending it to the cross with Jesus, then makes alive together with Him in His resurrection. “Old things have passed away, behold, all things have become new. And all things are of God” (2 Cor. 5:17, 18).
