Changed

In the Bible, the concept of "changed" often reflects a transformation or alteration in state, character, or condition, frequently associated with spiritual renewal or divine intervention. For instance, in 2 Corinthians 5:17, the Apostle Paul proclaims, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away; behold, the new has come." This verse illustrates the transformative power of faith, emphasizing that belief in Christ leads to a profound change in a person's identity and life.Additionally, the term can refer to physical or situational changes. In the context of biblical narratives, such as the transformation of Moses’ face after speaking with God (Exodus 34:29-30), the change signifies a visible reflection of divine glory and the impact of God's presence. Similarly, in the New Testament, the Transfiguration of Jesus (Matthew 17:2) showcases a dramatic change in appearance that reveals His divine nature. Overall, "changed" in the Bible signifies both a spiritual metamorphosis and the visible manifestations of God’s power in the lives of individuals and communities.
