Who are you? I’m glad you asked. You are:
• God’s child (John 1:12),
• Christ’s friend (John 15:15),
• a member of Christ’s body (1 Corinthians 12:27),
• a saint (Ephesians 1:1),
• redeemed and forgiven of all your sins (Colossians 1:14),
• complete in Christ, lacking in nothing (Colossians 2:10),
• free from condemnation (Romans 8:1–2),
• God’s coworker (2 Corinthians 6:1),
• seated with Christ in the heavenly realm (Ephesians 2:6),
• God’s workmanship (Ephesians 2:10),
• a citizen of heaven (Philippians 3:20),
• adopted into God’s family (Ephesians 1:5),
• born of God, and the evil one cannot touch you (1 John 5:18).
Get acquainted with your new self.
In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. [Romans 6:11]
