Circumcised In Christ “The New You”

Colossians 2:11
When you came to Christ, you were “circumcised,” but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision—the cutting away of your sinful nature.

As stated in this verse, circumcision means a cutting away, and in this reference it refers to a cutting away of the old sinful nature that used to reside on the inside, our old spirit man. When you truly become born again, the old dead spirit man was taken away and a brand new spirit with the life of God is birthed in you. The Lord removed the old sinful man on the inside so we can be transformed on the outside as well.

As Romans 12:1-2 tells us, we are to now present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God which is our reasonable response of worship unto Him. And we are to be transformed by the renewing of our mind, so that we can prove what is the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God. This renewal of the mind is the key to seeing this new man change the way we live outwardly. The key to renewing the mind becomes what we renew our minds to.

We need to focus the renewal of our minds on the scriptures in the New Testament that refer to “In Christ, In Him, In Whom, etc.”. Take time to write these verses down. This is who you have now become in Christ as a new creation. As you look at theses verses declare them to yourself. In doing so, they will begin to help you see the new man within, and this will transform you from the inside out, walking in this new life you have already been given.
