Being What You Are

Have you seen the hit movie Babe?

Babe is a 1995 Australian film that tells the story of a pig who wants to be a sheep dog. There was even a character in the movie, a duck to be exact (named Ferdinand) , who wakes the whole farm each morning by stealing the cock's job of crowing. It really was funny.

But is it really possible for a pig to become a sheep dog or a duck to be a cock or a rooster? In nature, that cannot be possible! But in Christ, nothing is impossible! For in a second, Jesus has the power to change a pig into a new creature (figuratively speaking a man being compared to a pig because of its sinful nature).

Most of the time, we would hear our pastor emphasize as a reference to his sermon a Bible passage from 2 Corinthians 5:17 -

"Anyone who is joined to Christ is a new being; the old is gone, the new has come."

Sincerely, what is the relevance of this Bible verse in our Christian life? Was it just among our favorite memory verses that we have to recite everytime our pastor would make a reference from it in the middle of his sermon.

I had found all of the answers from this podcast posting that inspired me to make this blog. This made me realized how important it is for a Christian to be what we really are. I was able to locate it in Youtube of which I am posting it here in my blog. Please do watch it and be blessed.
