About This Quote

You are a new creation by the blood of Jesus. The verses that follow are found in Ephesians 2.11-13. The phrase “new creation” is used several times in the Bible, frequently with reference to the new Jerusalem, which will replace the old city of Jerusalem. The first time this phrase is used in the New Testament is in Colossians 1.15: "He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation." The phrase "new creation" has also been used with reference to spiritual rebirth (Romans 6:4), regeneration (Titus 2:13), and reformation (2 Corinthians 3:6). The idea of "new creation" is that God has created us anew. We are not just humans but something more than that—we are children of God.
