As we continue to learn about our identity through the lens of scripture, we can rest in the fact that we are made holy in righteous through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.
Key Takeaway
We are holy in Christ. Jesus saved us from the identity of a sinner and called us righteous. If we surrender to the Lord, the holy spirit will guide us through this life. The holy spirit leads us to walk out who God has made us to be!
1.As a baseline—We all could identify as sinners. But in Christ, we are holy!
Christ wants us to begin and live our journey through this label.
It is not performance-based holiness it’s positional holiness because we have joined our lives to Christ.
Romans 5:15—Even though all the sins, Jesus did one act and gave the gift of righteousness through Him.
God’s definition of you is the truth and, ultimately, more important, your opinion.
2.Agreeing with God creates an adjustment to our thinking.
This leads us to the working of the progression of the holiness that God has given us.
We must yield the control of our lives to the spirit of God.
The spirit will guide our lives in the name of the Lord.
