Fluid Christians

The study of Human Diversity reveals that personal identity is not 'individual' at all but rather, a reflection of numerous influences that shape identity into accepting and rejecting particular aspects of societal norms, values and beliefs. Our identity is strongly influenced by our family, our school and work peers, our culture and our nations. This is also applicable within the church context. Sometimes, our identity as Christians is influenced by our Christian circles and not always, influenced by Christ. Because of this human tendency, Christians should always be fluid. If we're not, we run the risk of the Potter not being able to mould us and shape us into what He desires for us to be. Whatever perception we have of what our 'Christian identity' should look like, we must always make room for God to change and even correct those perceptions.
