Rhapsody Of Realities 9 October 2025 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): A New, Justified Being

TOPIC: A New, Justified Being (Rhapsody of Realities 9 October 2025)

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:

When we say Jesus paid the price for the whole world of sinners, you need to understand that we’re speaking generically. It doesn’t include Christians because the Christian isn’t counted among the sinners. Christians are a different species of being; they’re not from the world. They came into a new life through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

When you believed in Jesus Christ and confessed His lordship over your life, you were recreated; born again with a new life: “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4). This is the essence of Christianity; you’re a new creation born from the resurrection into a newness of life.

As a result, you walk as a justified person. What does it mean to be justified? It means to be declared not guilty, acquitted. The person who was guilty died with Christ on the Cross. And when Jesus resurrected, a new you came alive. This new you was created in righteousness and true holiness.

Romans 4:25, referring to the Lord Jesus, tells us that He “…was delivered for our offenses, and was raised again for our justification.” Glory to God! You’re justified because you’re a new creation. This is why we preach the Gospel with urgency. We want men and women everywhere to come into Christ and become new creations. We want them to know they’ve been justified and that in Christ, they don’t have a past; they’re new species.

James 1:18 says, “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be A KIND OF FIRSTFRUITS OF HIS CREATURES.” Notice the underlined expression; you’re a different breed, one with the divine nature; sanctified, glorified and justified. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Dear Father, I thank you for the new life in Christ. I’m a new creation, justified and alive to God. Old things are passed away, and all things have become new. I walk in the consciousness of my divine nature, manifesting the glory and righteousness of God everywhere I go, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Romans 4:23-25 KJV Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; 24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

Acts 13:38-39 KJV Be it known unto you therefore, men [and] brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: 39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

1 Peter 1:23 KJV Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
