Jesus died for the whole world, including Christians, right?”
“Well, the Lord Jesus died for everyone, but the moment I believed in His resurrection and confessed His Lordship, I literally became someone new, a new creation. I’m not the same person He died for. I’ve become a new species of being without a past,” Stephanie responded to Jessica’s question while they studied the Bible together.
Generically, we say, Jesus died for all of us—the whole world; He was judged for us. But when you believed that He died for you and was raised back to life for your justification, it became possible for eternal life to be imparted to your spirit. Once that happened, you were born again; you became a Christian—a new creation. The new creation is a brand-new person, a brand-new species of being; he or she has no past.
You aren’t the same person that was born of your father and mother; that’s the “old you” with the sin nature who died with Christ: “Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin” (Romans 6:6). The new you— the new creation—came from the resurrection: “Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4). This “new you” is created in righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:24). Hallelujah!
If it’s true that the new creation has no past (and it’s true), then he isn’t the one that Jesus died for. Understanding this will help you a great deal in your Christian walk. It’ll make it easier for you to understand why you’re justified. The Bible says Jesus Christ was raised back to life for our justification (Romans 4:25). You’ve been justified in Him. In other words, in the mind of justice, you never sinned. You’re the righteousness of God in Christ.

PRAY
I worship you Father, Lord God of heaven and earth, for blessing me with your Word. I declare that I’m a new creation in Christ Jesus and the lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places. I refuse to struggle for anything, for you’ve blessed me richly with all things to enjoy. I walk in favour, divine health and prosperity all the days of my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
