I was once a man of the world. I lived for myself, followed worldly desires, and cared little about the things of God. I wore many earrings, covered my body with tattoos from head to feet, and my life reflected rebellion, pain, and confusion. But today, I stand not as the old man I used to be — I stand as a new creation in Christ Jesus. The world judged me by my appearance, but God looked at my heart. The Bible says in 1 Samuel 16:7: “Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” Jesus did not reject me because of my past. He called me, forgave me, cleansed me, and gave me a new life. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” My tattoos do not define me. My earrings do not define me. My past sins do not define me. Jesus Christ defines me now. Before Christ, I was lost in darkness, but now I walk in His marvelous light. As written in Ephesians 2:1-5: “And you were dead in the trespasses and sins… But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which He loved us… made us alive together with Christ.” Some people may still see the old version of me, but God sees the redeemed version of me. The scars on my body are reminders of where I have been, but my spirit now belongs to Jesus Christ. Romans 8:1 says: “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” I am not proud of the sinful life I once lived, but I am thankful that God’s grace was greater than my past. If Jesus could change me, He can change anyone. John 8:36 says: “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” Today, I no longer live for the world. I live for Christ. My appearance may still carry signs of my past, but my heart now belongs to God. And that is the power of salvation through Christ Jesus. @Lion Teacher 📜🎤🇬🇭🌎 #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #video #trending - @pillarofzionevangelism
