What does it mean to say we are new creations in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Being a new creation means that individuals have been transformed by the gospel and are empowered to live in obedience to God.

When Scripture declares that believers are new creations in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), it signifies a radical transformation that occurs at the moment of salvation. This transformation is not merely a moral improvement but a complete renewal of one’s nature, involving a new heart, new desires, and a new identity. Believers are empowered by the Holy Spirit to pursue holiness and reflect the character of Christ in their lives. This new identity redefines their purpose and calling, enabling them to engage in good works and spread the message of the gospel effectively, all for the glory of God.
