AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life]. |
Bible Question (short): In Adam vs. In Christ? |
Question (full): Greetings Aixen7z4 - You wrote, "our lives are merged into his"; I think that our dear member Ray would be gratified if we chose to capitalize "His!" How does this differ from being "in Adam?" 1 Cor 15:22 (see also 15:45) For me, this expands my understanding of the salvation that I have "in Him", who loved me and gave Himself up for me!
