Rhapsody Of Realities 9 August 2026 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): You Don’t Have Two Natures

TOPIC: You Don’t Have Two Natures (Rhapsody of Realities 9 August 2026)

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new – 2 Corinthians 5:17

Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

One of the most important truths about the New Birth is this: you don’t have two natures. You’re not partly human and partly divine. The Bible is clear: old things are passed away, and all things have become new. That includes the old nature. The Bible says, “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures” (James 1:18).

You’re vitally born of God. The life you received from Him wasn’t added to your human life; it replaced it. That’s why the Lord Jesus said, “That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit” (John 3:6). Your origin has changed. The New Birth translated you from death to life. Hallelujah!

The Apostle Paul expresses this reality powerfully: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me…” (Galatians 2:20). The “I” that was sustained by the old life has been brought to an end. What you have now is the life of Christ in you. The idea that a Christian has two natures suggests a constant inner conflict between opposing natures within the same person. But that’s not the picture the Scriptures present.

The Word says, “Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him…” (Romans 6:6). Notice it doesn’t say, “Our old man is being crucified”; the only thing ongoing is the renewing of your mind: “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind…” (Romans 12:2).

Your spirit is already recreated in righteousness and true holiness (Ephesians 4:24). You’re now a partaker of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). Stop trying to suppress an old nature that doesn’t exist. Galatians 5:24 says, “And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.” Therefore, don’t struggle to be righteous; live righteously because that’s who you are.

Live in the consciousness of this truth and your life will consistently reflect the dominion and excellence of Christ.

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for recreating me in Christ. I don’t have two natures; I have your divine nature in me. I live in the reality of who I am, expressing righteousness, dominion and excellence every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Romans 6:5-6 (KJV)
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: [6] Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

Ephesians 4:22-24 (NIV)
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; [23] to be made new in the attitude of your minds; [24] and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

2 Peter 1:4 (KJV)
Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
