We have newfound power to live as God intended for us to live when we walk after the spirit which he equips us to do through the new birth.

Amen, Bro,
and that vs from 2 Corinth makes it clear about what has happened to the former things, the way we used to live (according to the flesh). I guess the key is to keep that "newness" alive
Therefore if any man be in Christ,he is a new creature:old things are passed away;behold,all things are become new.
(2 Corinthians 5:17)
Deborah-Leigh:
Ray says the following :
No, our final destination is to be BORN into the Kingdom of God, not just an "adoption." Some bibles do not ever use the word "adoption." Even if we were to accept these Scriptures as "adoption," we still have the added knowledge that we are to be BORN into the Kingdom of God.
We are all "called," but is that our final destiny? No, there is also (in addition to the called) those called ones who are CHOSEN, and even among the chosen, there must be the FAITHFUL (Rev.17:14). Judas was called and chosen, but he was NOT FAITHFUL UNTIL THE END!!
Hope this helps your understanding.
God be with you,
Ray
