What is the point of becomining a new creature in Christ?

For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

Knowing this that our old man is crucified with him that the body of sin might be destroyed that henceforth we should not serve sin.

For he that is dead is freed from sin.

Now if we be dead with Christ , we believe we shall also live with him.

Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

For in that he died he died unto sin once: but in tht he liveth , he liveth unto God. Romans 6:5-10

So the purpose of overcoming is to destroy this body of sin. The whole point of becoming new creatures is to get rid of sin in our lives. When we are no longer sinners then we can truly say that we live our lives for Christ. And when we love God we will put off sin because we will no longer love to sin but we will despise it.

Are we progressing to fullfill God's purpose in our lives? If so this is the whole point of growing and God truly wants us to grow and progress and not to allow any hinderances to stop His plan and His purpose for our lives.
