One of my favorite shows is Doctor Who... I started watching it about a year ago and have been watching it ever since. One of the characteristics of the Doctor is that when he "dies" he is able to regenerate into a new Doctor... There are 12 actors that have portrayed the Doctor throughout the generations, but one thing never changed... his regeneration. Another thing that I've noticed about this process, is that each time the Doctor regenerates, he is vulnerable...
As Christians, we are like the Doctor in that respect... when we accept the free gift of salvation, we become a new creation... 2 Corinthians 5:17 states that if we are in Christ, we are a new creation. We have been regenerated... and like the Doctor, we are vulnerable to temptation, and sin.
As we go through life, things are constantly changing... but the one thing that remains constant in our lives is God, who is not a mad man with a box... but He does have quite the sense of humor sometimes. But I digress...
We have been regenerated but we are human, and we will make mistakes... but we have victory over death through Christ Jesus and we will live with Him forever... that is the most amazing regeneration ever!
Have a wonderful Friday!
