NVP says that by the grace of God anything that needs changing can be changed. II Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore if anyone be in Christ they are new creature; old things have passed away; behold all things are become new.” When a person becomes new in Christ, old things, old fears, anxieties, complexes, faults and the like are passed away. On returning to tough old situations that previously defeated one, the situation can be changed because the person is changed.
