Do you find your identity in
who you are or whose you are?
That subtle nuance makes all
the difference in the world, both this one and the next.
You can base your identity
on a thousand things -- the degrees you've earned, the positions you hold, the
salary you make, the trophies you've won, the hobbies you have, the way you
look, the way you dress, or even the car you drive. But if you base your identity
on any of those temporal things, your identity is a house of cards. There is
only one solid foundation: Jesus Christ. If you find security in what you have done, you will always fall
short of the righteous standard set by the sinless Son of God. The solution?
The gospel. There is only one place in which to find your true identity and eternal
security: what Christ has done for you.
