Identity

To whomever left a comment on the last post...Thank you! It encourages me that you have been encouraged. In response to your comment, I have found a sheet of paper that I received a year or so ago about who we as followers of Christ are in Him. I don't know who put it together, but it is beautiful! This is what it says:

If you are "in Christ" you have a new identity:

You are a friend of God. John 15:15

You are already a citizen of heaven. Philippians 3:20

You are safe because you are hidden with Christ in God. Colossians 3:3

You are chosen by God. Ephesians 1:4

You are adopted by a loving Father. Ephesians 1:5

You are forgiven. Colossians 1:14

You are included, never to be left out. Ephesians 1:13

You are a saint. (imagine that) Ephesians 1:18

You are the salt and light of the earth. Matthew 5:13-14

You are a minister. 2 Corinthians 5:17-20

You have access to God. Ephesians 2:18

You are called by name. 2 Timothy 1:9

You are prayed for by Jesus. John 17:20-23

You have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:16

You are protected. John 10:28

You are rescued from a dark kingdom. Colossians 1:13

You are not cursed. Galatians 3:13

You are victorious. 1 Corinthians 15:57

You have a new birth certificate. John 3:3
