Your True Identity | True Identity | Week 1
Big Idea: In Christ you become most fully yourself.
The Traditional View:
Your identity is assigned to you by your role in the community and your sense of worth comes from how well you discharge your duties.
The Modern View:
Your identity is revealed through self-discovery and your self-worth comes from fully embracing your true self.
The Christian view:
Your identity is established by who God says you are and your self-worth comes from being found in Christ as an adopted son or daughter.
3 Markers of your True Identity in Christ.
- You are adopted. (1:5) – Abandonment Culture – “He took me in."
- You are redeemed. (1:7) – Slave Culture. – “He bought me back.”
- You are sealed. (1:13). – Proprietary Culture. – “I am His.”
Next Step

- He took me in, He bought me back, I am His.
