1 John 2:7-8

"Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard. On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true Light is already shining."

1 John 2:7-8 (NASB)

The ”new commandment,” which embodies all the old commandments, is the Holy Spirit in us. God is living in us, progressively growing and shaping our life. It is all His doing. None of the Christian life is up to us. Praise the Lord!

Philippians 2:13, "For it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure."

Ephesians 2:10, "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them."

Philippians 1:6, "For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus."

Galatians 3:3, "Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?"
