Scripture Text: Revelation 2:17

All Things Made New

A New Name Written Down in Glory

Revelation 2:17

But names are important. They can shape how we think about ourselves – how we view ourselves.

II Corinthians 5:17 — “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

His love is higher than the heavens and his forgiveness removes our sins as far as the east is from the west.

Now, there’s a difference between something that’s been “made new” and something that’s been jimmy-rigged.

Jesus said He “came to seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10).

Martin Luther said “Jesus Christ never died for our good works. They were not worth dying for. But he gave himself for our sins, according to the Scriptures.”
