You know, I think, today, we bury too many live people.
You bury people after they're dead. Is that right? Yes, sir. Listen, brother, a dead man won't argue with you. You can say anything to him you want to, call him all kinds of names, he won't say a word. Why? He is dead.
And a man that's dead in Christ, you can offer him a drink, you can give him this, that, or the other, but he's dead. And he's hid in Christ, through God, sealed by the Holy Spirit. Amen. That's it. Now, then, he can't do those things, because he—he just can't do it. It's against his nature. He becomes a new creature.
You take an old hog and wash him up, and scrub him up, and manicure his toe nails, and give it lipstick, and put it on, all the nylons you want to; turn it loose, it'll go right to a wallow and wallow. The scrubbing don't do no good. It's still got the nature of a hog.
And then you take a lamb and put him in a mud hole, he'll squeal till you get him out. Why? He's the nature of a lamb.
Now, the only way to keep the hog out of the mud is change his nature. That's right.
That's the only way to make a Christian. Let his nature be changed, from a sinner to a saint. See? And there's only one remedy, that's the Holy Spirit. Then you're a witness. Amen.

Daily Bread II Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
