Are You a Part of the Second Creation?
“And He is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things He might have the preeminence.” - Colossians 1:18
There are two beginnings in creation. The first beginning occurred when God created the heavens and the earth. He spoke and--just like that--from His fingertips flew this vast, measureless universe. How simple it was for God to create this universe.
The second beginning is when His creature, man, becomes a new creation in Christ (see 2 Corinthians 5:17). When God reconciled us through His Son, it took every drop of His blood. There was no other way to be saved apart from the death of Jesus--the perfect sacrifice.
None of us were here for the first Creation. But we can all be a part of the Second Creation! If you have received the salvation Jesus bought with His blood--thank Him that He’s made you a new creature...a second creation!
