# he is a new creation
Paul speaks of the person who believes in Christ as if that person were a new person that God had created. Alternate translation: "he is a new person" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
Alternate translation: "he is a new person" Paul speaks of the person who believes in Christ as if that person were a new person that God had created. The old and new creation probably refer to how Paul illustrates the old and new self. These concepts are also the same as the old and new man. The term "old" probably does not refer to the sinful nature with which a person is born. It refers to the old way of living or the Christian formerly being bound to sin. The "new creation" is the new nature or new life that God gives a person after they come to believe in Christ.
# The old things have passed away
Here "the old things" refers to the things that characterized a person before he trusted in Christ.
