It's All About HIS Love For Us 2

Hi, welcome to back and I'm sorry for the long wait.
The last time we were able to understand that we cannot confess our sins since we can't confess what isn't our nature anymore. Now, why do we still have sinful actions despite accepting JESUS, shouldn't we confess that? This question will be answered now.
First of all let's take a look at 2 Corinthians 5:17 from the Amplified version. It says "Therefore, if anyone is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a creation (a new nature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition, has passes away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!"
Take note of the word "ingrafted". For those of you who did a little of biology in school would remember the word grafting. From Wikipedia "Grafting or graftage is a horticultural technique
whereby tissues from one plant are inserted into those of another so that the two sets of vascular tissues may join together. This vascular joining is called inosculation.
In simple terms, when a tissue in form of a sterm of a grapefruit is attached to an orange tree. The grapefruit has stopped receiving nourishment from the root of grapefruit, but now starts receiving nourishment from the orange tree.
Now, this applies to those who have received JESUS into their lives. The Spirit is what has been changed. With time the just as the grapefruit started receiving nourishment/life from the orange tree, also this applies to Christians whose life is Christ (Colossians 3:4).
The major point now is what to confess.
Log on tomorrow morning to find the answer to this question.
If you've been blessed and you would like to be prayed for, you could send your prayer request through the Google plus platform.
GOD BLESS YOU.
