2 Corinthians 5:17–18 (NRSV) — 17 So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: 

everything old has passed away; 

see, everything has become new! 

18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, 

and has given us the ministry of reconciliation;

2 Corinthians 5:17–18 (NLT) — 17 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ 

has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! 

18 And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. 

And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him.

2 Corinthians 5:17–18 (The Message) — 17 ... The old life is gone; a new life burgeons! ...

Colossians 3:10 (NRSV) — 10 [You] have clothed yourselves with the new self, 

which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator.

Colossians 3:10 (NLT) — 10 Put on your new nature, and be renewed 

as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.

All of this is from God ...

you are reflecting His Image

and drawing others unto Him! 

Hallelujah!
