Wednesday Service | Re-New | Part 3: A New You

2 Corinthians 5:17 (LB)

¹⁷ When someone becomes a Christian, he becomes a brand new person inside. He is not the same anymore. A new life has begun!

[1] What you about yourself matters

• EVERYTHING WE BELIEVE IS SHAKABLE… UNLESS WE HAVE A ROCK SOLID REASON TO STAND ON IT

Revelation 21:4-5 (NLT)

⁴ He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.”

⁵ And the one sitting on the throne said, “Look, I am making everything new!” 

[2] Jesus is in the business

Romans 6:4 (NIRV)

⁴ By being baptized, we were buried with Christ into his death. Christ has been raised from the dead by the Father’s glory. And like Christ we also can live a new life.

[3] is the process of being renewed in Christ Jesus

Colossians 3:10 (NLT)

¹⁰ Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.

• My is being made new

Psalm 23:3 (NLT)

He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name.

• My is being made new

Psalm 51:10 (NIRV)

¹⁰ God, create a pure heart in me. Give me a new spirit that is faithful to you.

• My is being made new

Psalm 94:19 (NLT)

¹⁹ When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.

[4] There is a foundation to my new

1 Peter 2:9-10 (NIRV)

⁹ But God chose you to be his people. You are royal priests. You are a holy nation. You are God’s special treasure. You are all these things so that you can give him praise. God brought you out of darkness into his wonderful light. ¹⁰ Once you were not a people. But now you are the people of God. Once you had not received mercy. But now you have received mercy.

• I am not left over… I am

• I am not … I have a heavenly

2 Corinthians 5:18-20 (NLT)

¹⁸ And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. ¹⁹ For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. ²⁰ So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!”

• I don’t belong to this world… I to God

• I am not trash… I am extremely

Matthew 10:29-31 (NIRV)

²⁹ Aren’t two sparrows sold for only a penny? But not one of them falls to the ground outside your Father’s care. ³⁰ He even counts every hair on your head! ³¹ So don’t be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.

• I am not judged… I am

Romans 8:1 (NIRV)

Those who belong to Christ Jesus are no longer under God’s judgment.
