“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new
creation.
The old has passed away:
Behold, the new has come.”
-2 Corinthians 5:17
Do you struggle with the idea that you are a new
creation in Christ? Do you want to experience true freedom in Christ, but
struggle with the flesh? You are not alone. If you are tired of the ups and
downs, the guilt, and the feelings of helpless that come with struggling with
your sin, read this book.
In It is Finished, David Wilkerson presents the concept of the New
Covenant and he makes it accessible to all believers. He shows how through the
New Covenant we can become free from life-controlling sins through the power of
the Holy Spirit. He clearly lays out what the New Covenant is and how we can
draw on it and the power of the Holy Spirit, how all we have to do is ask and
believe. Through the power of the New Covenant we are able to experience true
transformation and we will become new creations.
If you don’t want to be convicted, don’t read this
book. I was in tears at points as the Lord used this book to open my eyes to
areas that I struggle with and my feelings of hopelessness and guilt. At times,
I felt like David Wilkerson had stepped into my life and was writing about me.
The way he described the place of nothingness that most if not all Christians
come to at some point in their life felt so personal to me. It was if he was
seeing straight into my life right now and writing about it. This book is a
powerful tool of the Lord’s, and I was blessed through the reading of this
book.
Thank you to Chosen for my copy of this book. I was
glad to have the chance to read it and review it.
