Jesus, the Wisdom of God

Posted on March 23, 2012 Posted by Blue Letter Bible

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” (2 Corinthians 5:17) Paul tells the Corinthian church that every Christian is made anew—a “new creation”. The old is gone and the new is come.
