2 Corinthians 5:17
“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come!”
“Si alguno está en Cristo, nueva criatura es; las cosas viejas pasaron, he aquí todas son hechas nuevas” promete que la unión con Cristo hace a la persona verdaderamente nueva. La conversión no es mera mejora propia, sino un nuevo comienzo que Dios obra.

“In Christ” is the key phrase: belonging to Jesus changes one’s deepest identity. What follows is not gradual tidying-up but a declaration — “the new has come.”
The change is real even as it keeps unfolding: a believer is already a new creation and is being remade day by day into Christ’s likeness.
If I’m a “new creation,” why do I still struggle?
The decisive change is real, but growth continues. Scripture holds both together: you are already new in Christ, and God is still at work making you new.
