2. Learning About Who You Are
•One of the wonderful things
about being a Christian is learning
who you are to become in Christ.
•To become like Christ.
Romans 8:29; Luke 6:40
•You make the choice to be what
God created you to be. Gal. 2:20
•You are special and have many
blessings and responsibilities.
Luke 9:23; Luke 17:10; Eph. 1:3
3. I Am A New Creation
•You are to live in such a way that those,
“Old things have passed away; behold, all
things have become new” (2 Cor. 5:17).
•How? We must live in the world but not
of the world (being like them), but we’re
to be like Jesus (Jn. 17:14-17).
4. I Am A Child Of God
•When we receive Him (John 1:12).
•We receive Christ when we obey the
gospel (Rom. 6:3-6; Gal. 3:26-27).
•How do we prove this? 1 Jn. 3:10; 5:2;
Rom. 8:16-17
5. I Am A Son Of God
•God is my spiritual Father (Rom. 8:14-
15).
•We are adopted back into God’s
spiritual family through Jesus Christ
(Gal. 4:4-7; Eph. 1:7)!
6. I Am Chosen Of God, Holy
And Dearly Loved
•As such we need to act in accordance to
God’s expectations and requirements
(Col. 3:12-15)!
•Holy is an adjective describing the pure
life we must live as God’s people.
7. I Am Enslaved To God
•We choose of our own free will to
willingly serve God as such (Rom. 6:22;
Eph. 6:6).
•At the same time we understand that
we are a slave of righteousness (Rom.
6:18)! “There’s nothing better, at this
point in time!”
8. I Am God’s Workmanship
•I’m created in Christ Jesus to do
His good work (Eph. 2:10).
•Part of our work is spreading the
gospel message (Mark 16:15-16).
9. I Am Christ’s Friend
•We are this if we do whatever Christ
has commanded (John 15:14-15).
•As His friends, Jesus has told us what
the Father has told Him, and we know
what He is doing (Jn. 14:1-3).
10. I Am Begotten Again
•To a living hope through the resurrection
of Jesus Christ from the dead (1 Pet. 1:3;
3:21).
•You too can be born again (Jn. 3:3-5)!
•Come to Jesus and be born again!
•Hear & Believe the Gospel. 1 Cor. 15:3-4
•Repent of sin. Acts 2:38
•Confess your faith in Christ. Acts 8:37
•Be baptized for forgiveness of your sins.
Acts 2:38; 22:16
12. In Christ Exists The Realm
Of A Completely New Life
As new creatures in Christ we
always need to explore and grow
in these new ways (2 Peter 3:18).
Let us seek to become all that
God wants us to be in Christ
(Rom. 12:1-2; Eph. 4:22-24).
13. I Am An Expression Of The
Life Of Christ
•He is my life (Colossians 3:4)!
•We live in Christ by putting away the
things of death, that is sin (Col. 3:5-6).
•Even if we do anything like the works
of the flesh we will spiritually perish
(Gal. 5:19-21). We must live Christ-like!
14. I Am Reconciled To God
•I am also a minister of reconciliation in
Christ (2 Cor. 5:18-19).
•Anyone can be reconciled to God (Eph.
2:16; 1 Cor. 12:13).
15. I Am An Ambassador Of
Christ On Earth
•Heaven is my home (2 Cor. 5:20;
Phil. 3:20-21).
•We need to represent as citizens
of heaven while we’re here (Heb.
11:13-16).
16. I Am A Temple Of God
•God’s spirit and life dwells in me
(1 Cor. 3:16-17; 6:19-20).
•As a temple of God we must live
pure and godly lives so as not to
defile the my temple which is
God’s both in body and spirit!
17. I Am A Part Of The True Vine
•As a branch in Christ I must channel
Christ’s life to others bearing fruit
through Him (Jn. 15:1-5; Phil. 4:13).
•If we do not bear fruit the vine dresser
will take us away.
•We must abide in Christ by doing what
He commands (Jn. 8:31-32).
18. I Am The Salt Of The Earth
•As Christians we all need to be
this to the world (Mt. 5:13).
•If we are not salty we will be
thrown out. We must present a
special and different flavor that
God approves (2 Cor. 3:2-3).
19. I Am The Light Of The World
•We must let that light of Christ
reflect and shine through our lives
(Mt. 5:14,16).
•You must be sure to be a son of
light, not of darkness (1 Thes. 5:5, 8).
20. I Am Hidden With Christ In God
•That is I have died to the sinful
life and have a glorious new life
(Col. 3:3; Rom. 6:2, 7,11).
•The world will not fully see the
glory of your new life that we have
in Christ until Jesus comes back
(Col. 3:4;1 Jn. 3:2).
21. Do You Want To Be With
Jesus When He Comes Back?
•If so, you must come to Jesus; learn of
Him and obey the gospel! Mt. 11:28-30;
2 Thes.1:7-9
•How to obey it: Hebrews 5:9
•Hear & Believe it. Rom. 1:16-17; 10:17
•Repent of the sinful life. Acts 3:19
•Confess Christ. Acts 8:37
•Be baptized for forgiveness of sins. Acts 2:38
•Continue being faithful. Revelation 2:10
