Living the Christian Life Is Becoming What We Have Already Been Made Pt 1

In the seventh episode of "Maverick Reformers," hosts Seth and Richard unpack one of the most transformative concepts of the Biblical New Covenant. Moving past standard self-improvement formulas, the duo contrasts how contemporary culture views selfhood with how God defines a believer's identity from the moment of spiritual rebirth. By reviewing 2 Corinthians 5:17 and Romans 12:2, the conversation demonstrates how a genuine faith in Jesus causes a person to be reborn into a new creation who is completely free of guilt and condemnation, with God’s indwelling Spirit giving the power and ability to live a life of godliness and deep joy.

Drawing rich parallels from the Old Testament tabernacle and the Mosaic sacrificial system, Richard illustrates how the blood of Christ provides ultimate cleansing to turn the believer into a living temple for the indwelling Holy Spirit. The hosts tackle the critical theological tension of sanctification, explaining that while believers have been fully sanctified, they are simultaneously being sanctified and renewed day by day. Wrapping up part one of this essential sub-series, Seth and Richard challenge their audience to discard lingering feelings of guilt and condemnation, and embrace who we have become in Christ.
