In the eleventh episode of "Identity Theft," Duane Sheriff teaches our new identification in Christ from a spiritual perspective. Christians have a new identity through our association with Jesus, and it's essential to understand and embrace this truth.
Many people, including Christians, suffer from "identity amnesia," forgetting who they truly are in Christ. Believers must break free from imposed identities that may come from family, peers, or society and instead embrace our new identity as children of God. 2 Corinthians 5:17 states, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." This verse underscores the transformative power of our identification with Christ, emphasizing that we are entirely new creations in Him.
Romans 12:2 warns against conforming to the world's standards and instead encourages believers to be transformed by renewing their minds. This renewal process involves understanding and living out our new identity in Christ. Our actions flow from our identity. If we continue to see ourselves as "sinners saved by grace" rather than as righteous new creations in Christ, it will affect our behavior and spiritual growth.
