In God's plan of salvation, those who put their trust in Jesus Christ are transformed into new creations. As 2 Corinthians 5:17 notes, they become new creations in Christ, with their old selves passing away. The gift of eternal life is available to all who believe, as stated in John 3:16, and this life is marked by forgiveness and cleansing, as promised in 1 John 1:9. Believers are called to endure in their faith, as encouraged in Matthew 10:22, and are assured that the gift of God is eternal life, rather than the wages of sin, as explained in Romans 6:23. Through faith, believers experience a profound change in their relationship with God.
