Therefore, if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation. – 2 Corinthians 5:17
It’s like a sci-fi movie, but it’s real. The people working with artificial intelligence (AI) become very attached to their work. One man recently said he didn’t want the government interfering with his creation. Unfortunately, his view of the project is already skewed. There is only One who is capable of true creation. God’s creations were made perfect, and AI has already proven to have many flaws.
Sin has flawed the world and its pleasures as well. The fleshly man is “filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil covetousness, malice… envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless”
(Romans 1:29-31).
However, the message of the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ can change that fleshly person. Belief in Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection redeems humans from the punishment for their sins.
As Jesus proclaimed to Nicodemus, you must be born again. “That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit” (John 3:6).
All humankind is dead in sin, but those who believe become alive in the Spirit. This results in God’s transformation of the believer into His new creation. You have new purposes, new heart changed to love God, new thoughts, new principles, new rules, and live in a new company. That is cause for joy!
