When we’re lost out on the wayward road of sin, we develop quite a taste for an “us vs. them” mentality. We divide people, compare people, and judge ourselves by these standards constantly. This life is exhausting and sinful. But when we return to the start, our thinking changes. How we perceive others shifts. Instead of constantly seeing them as a threat, we see them as Christ does, “a new creation.” Our mind gets reprogramed and everything that was old becomes new.
