Description: We are continuing in our series called “Who do you think you are?” You don’t have to look long or far to realize that our world is having an identity crisis. Everywhere we look, people are on a constant search to figure out who they are, to define themselves, to make themselves significant or important. The good news for us is that the Bible has lots to say about who we are. It communicates that those of us who are in Christ have a brand new identity. In this series, we’ve seen that the Bible says quite a bit about us both apart from Christ and once we are in a relationship with Jesus. It uses a number of metaphors to communicate what God has done for us in Christ, and what that means for our identity. So far we’ve seen that we are justified— legally forgiven and declared righteous in God’s sight, we’re redeemed—set free from sin’s penalty and power, we’re reconciled— God has made us his friends. We are adopted into God’s own family. He has made us new creations, giving us spiritual life. He has made us members of His household and citizens in His kingdom. And in the last episode we saw that He has made us saints. We are set apart for Him. And those He sets apart, He sanctifies. He makes us more like Jesus. Today, we will see that if we are in Christ, not only are we set apart, but we are secure. God will keep us.
