Identity in Christ

What this episode covers

When you hear the word identity what does it mean to you? For most people identity has to do with who they are, their character, what sets them apart from others. However most people don’t really understand that it goes much deeper than that. The identity of a person tells much of who a person is and also what rights you have. For example when you apply for a job, you are asked for your credentials. This shows the company who you are, what education you have and what your goals are. It also tells them if you are a responsible person. When you apply for a loans you are asked for your identity, in order to find out if you are the person you say you are and if you will be responsible to pay back the loan. Furthermore identity also has to do with certain rights which we are given, such as carrying a passport. A passport is a form of identity which gives us the right to enter other countries and also to return to ours. As children of God, we also have certain rights on earth and in heaven. However, one of the biggest reasons why so many Christians struggle with problems, is because they don’t know their identity in Christ. What is your identity?
