Episode 41 - Identifying with Christ

Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.In 1995, Wayne Black thought it would be a great idea to have “I’m Wayne Black” tattooed across his forehead. Unfortunately, when he was confronted by the police as a suspected thief, he insisted he wasn’t Wayne Black.Many people struggle with their identity today. Yet, as a Christian, my identity is secure in Jesus Christ. The Bible says that my life was purchased by His blood and I belong to Him. Further, when I was baptized, I made public my faith and identity with Christ. Baptism is an outward expression of an inward decision. It pictures for us the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. It also pictures for others that I, too, have died to self, and am made alive to live for Christ today.
