Living with Courage in a Culture of Compromise w4

We can be confident in WHO we are; when we truly understand WHOSE we are

3 biblical reasons why it is so important for us to know our real identity:

1. What We Believe About Our Identity Affects How We Behave.

“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”  Proverbs 4:23

2. What We Believe About Our Identity Affects How We Relate To Other People.

“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”           Matthew 22:36-40
3. What We Believe About Our Identity Affects How We View God.

“So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”Genesis 1:27
