Why am I so fixated on our identity in Christ? Because our identity in Christ is Christ in us.
Some would say it is self-centered to focus on our Identity in Christ, but it is actually the best way I know to keep us from focusing on ourselves.
The truest way to live a crucified life is to identify completely with the resurrected Christ as our only life.
The surest way to set our minds on the Spirit is to come to terms with the fact that we are not natural beings engaging in spiritual pursuits, but are spiritual beings engaging in spiritual life.
The purest way to abide in Him is to commune with Him as He abides in us.
Yes, I'm fixated on my identity in Christ...or at least I try to be.
Bansai!!!
About Me
- Phil
- Broken Arrow, OK, United States
- I'm the worship leader at Life Demonstration Church in BA, OK. My wife, Bronwyn and I live here with our three kids, Ben, Sam, and Katie. They're tons of fun and make us feel very grateful to be parents. I was raised Baptist and eventually became an Agnostic. Strangely, I hold both very dear, because in one I learned to believe the Bible without question, and in the other to question everything. By the way, I'm no longer Baptist or Agnostic.
