The Great Exchange

The Great Exchange

I was pondering this thought….
(1) I did nothing to “earn” my old sin nature. My old sin nature was inherited by what the first Adam did. It was not any of MY sins that gave me that old sin nature. NONE! And in addition none of my righteous acts or good works could undue that inheritance.

(2) I did nothing to “earn” my new righteousness nature. My new righteousness natu…re is inherited by what the second Adam (Jesus) did. It was not any of MY righteousness that gave me this new righteousness nature. NONE! And in addition none of my sinful acts or wrongs can undue that inheritance.

Think about it… this is what I call the “Great Exchange”
Look it up for yourself. 🙂
Galatians 1:4
who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,
2 Corinthians 5:21 (NKJV)
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

For inquiring minds check out the words “for” and “evil” in Galatians 1:4 in the Greek. it will bless you.
