Greek word for new creation

The Greek word for "new creation" is κτίσις νέα (ktisis nea).

In the New Testament, the phrase "new creation" is used in 2 Corinthians 5:17, where it says:

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."

In this context, the phrase "new creation" refers to the transformation that takes place in a person's life when they come to faith in Jesus Christ. It is a reference to the idea that, through faith in Christ, a person is given a new nature, a new identity, and a new purpose, and that they are no longer defined by their old, sinful nature.
