2 Corinthians 5
17 If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature [or, “a new
creation”].
Many have thought that redemption is a greater work than creation.
Such speculation is idle,
---because only infinite power could perform either work,
---and infinite power cannot be measured by human minds.
But while we cannot measure the power, we can easily settle the question of which is the greater, because the Scriptures give us the information. Neither is greater than the other, for both are the same.
Redemption is creation.
Redemption is the same power that was put forth in the beginning to create the world and all that is in it, now put forth to save men and the earth from the curse of sin." E.J. Waggoner
