Our Identity | Two Men | Part 3

From "Our Identity Conference," session 3, Duane explores the transformative power of understanding one's identity in Christ by contrasting the lives of Adam and Christ.
Adam, the first man, disobeyed God, which led to sin entering the world. Through His ultimate sacrifice, Jesus Christ brought salvation and righteousness to humanity. This comparison is based on the understanding of redemption and transformation.
Adam's disobedience led to sin and death spreading to all humanity. This disobedience created a separation between humanity and God, marking every human as inherently sinful at birth. Jesus, the "second" or "last Adam," signifies a new beginning for humanity. His life, death, and resurrection offer hope and a new nature to those who believe in Him. By His obedience and sacrifice, Jesus reversed Adam's curse, providing a path to righteousness that is based on grace.
Jesus' act was a free gift, bringing justification and life, whereas Adam's act brought judgment and condemnation. This contrast is essential for believers to understand their new identity in Christ. We are no longer defined by our sins but by faith in Christ and rebirth as new creations.
The practical application of this teaching is a life transformed by the renewing of the mind. We are called to live out new identities by embracing the holiness and righteousness imparted by Christ. This transformation is not instantaneous but is a progressive journey of aligning our thoughts and actions with the truth of God's word.
We should fully embrace this new identity, letting it transform every aspect of our lives. This involves a continuous effort to renew one's mind, allowing the truth of God's word to replace old, sinful thought patterns and behaviors. #identity #god #truth #jesus

I've shared, "God loves us enough that if we choose to reject Him, He will allow us to go to hell" for 34 years. Have also been called a heretic, blasphemous, a liar & have had others told to stay away from me & all by so-called Christians.
