Transformation Through Christ. Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them. . . . For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. |
The Signs of the Times 8/12 1890 |
"Derfor, hvis nogen er i Kristus, er han en ny skabning; det gamle er forbi, se, noget nyt er blevet til! Men alt dette er fra Gud, som forligte os med sig selv ved Kristus og gav os forligelsens tjeneste; thi det var Gud, som i Kristus forligte verden med sig selv, idet han ikke tilregnede dem deres overtrædelser og lod ordet om forligelsen lyde iblandt os.. . . . Den, som ikke kendte til synd, har han gjort til synd for os, for at vi kunne blive Guds retfærdighed i ham. |
