Our Identity in Christ

A couple of days ago we looked at the loving behavior of the believer. Today I just want to briefly explore some of the other truths we see in God’s word about who we are as believers. Unlike other meditations we’ve gone through, today I invite you to look at and meditate on these scriptures on your own. An easy website to access for that purpose is https://www.biblegateway.com/
