    Your Past Is A Reference, Not A Residence

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 14, 2025
     | 501 views

    Paul explains true Christian behavior. The old nature is dead. We are to accept Jesus as our Savior and put on the new nature. When we let Christ in our hearts, He changes us into what we should be.

We that have been born again are dead to sin; its dominion has been broken. Our real home is in Heaven with Jesus. -- John ...read more
