			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">For <strong><span><span>Our old sinful nature has been buried in Christ and now We have been resurrected in Him and have been given His righteousness nature!</span></span></strong> This is our NEW identity and now, we can boldly say <strong>I am holy and blameless in God&#8217;s eyes</strong> not because of my works but because of  what Jesus has done on my behalf! I am just a victim of His perfect work!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">The word blameless means <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>free</em></span></span><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em> of guilt or not subject to blame<br />
</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For God to call us holy and blameless is just mind-blowing and yet this our new reality in Christ!! Thank God you all believe in this new reality! Now, God no longer sees us as unrighteous or unholy or full of disobedience instead He sees us as the opposite! Hallelujah! I could seriously end the sentence here and smile for the rest of the day! <img src='http://www.ilovethegospel.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2 Corinthians 5:17 says</strong><sup> <strong>17</strong></sup><strong> Therefore, if anyone <em>is</em> in Christ, <em>he is</em> a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">new creation</span>; <span style="text-decoration: underline;">old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">No longer we call our self a sinner anymore for our <strong>old things</strong> <strong>have passes away</strong> and <strong>all things have become new</strong>!! A believer is not a sinner anymore but they are the righteousness of God in Christ! Once we believe in Jesus, our old sinful nature has been buried in Christ on the cross and now we have inherited the nature of Christ in us! Amen &#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2 Corinthians 5:21 says</strong> <strong><sup>21</sup>God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For Christians, calling themselves a sinner is like telling a Lion, a Cat. A lion might act like a cat, speak like a cat, jump like a cat, tamed like a cat, and have the same behaviour like normal cats, but the lion&#8217;s true identity has not and cannot be changed! One day that lion will wake up to himself and realize that he is a lion and not a ca and yes he could kill you! <img src='http://www.ilovethegospel.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  His actions will be determined by his true nature which is the nature of lion (wild and untamed).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The same with us, if we believe that we are still a sinner, then our actions will be determined by what we believe and because of that we are trapped in sin. Although we try our best to not to sin, we often end up breaking our own laws and boundaries. The truth is that our identity has not changed, we still are the righteousness of God in Christ! Let&#8217;s stop trying to not sin (let&#8217;s be righteousness -conscious) and start living in your NEW righteousness nature and thank God you are the living proof of this new reality and can testify to this truth in your life. Your New nature is bearing fruits wherever you go for you have become the branches on a GOOD vine tree.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>John 15:5 says<sup> 5</sup>&#8220;I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Let&#8217;s start watching what Jesus is doing in your life and see Him bearing fruits in and through you!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">God bless</p>
