The Gospel Truth

You must be dead to the world; the flesh must be dead with Christ, buried with Christ — not improved, not made better, but utterly put aside as unimprovable, as worthless, dead, a thing to be buried and to be forgotten; and we must come forth in resurrection life, feeling that above us there is a new heaven, and beneath us a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness, seeing that we are new creatures in Christ Jesus.

Charles Spurgeon
