Become Who You Are

Colossians 3:1-8

  

What Is The Truest Thing About Me?

 

We May Find Our Identity In One Of Three Places:

 

      What We Do...

      What We Have...

      What We Desire...

 

We Have A New/True Identity.......

The Truest Thing About The Believer Is This, You Are Loved And Accepted By God.....Based On

On Your Relationship With Jesus!

 

   Henry Nouwen, Life With The Beloved, "From The Moment We Claim The Truth Of Being The 

   Beloved, We Are Faced With The Biblical Call To Become Who We Are."

 

What Does That Look Like?

 

      Jesus Baptism, Mathew 3:13-17

      Jesus Temptation, Matthew 4:1-11

 

What Does That Look Like For Us?

 

       You Are Not Your Desires...

       You Are Not What You Do...

       You Are Not What You Have...

 

You Must Become Who You Are In Christ;

 

        Who You Are - The Indicative

        What You Do - The Imperative

      

Back To Jesus Baptism:

 

        Why Did Jesus Demand That John Baptize Him?

        To Identify With Us

 

        Why Are We Baptized? Colossians 2:12

        To Identify With Him
