24/7 DOXA Content, 27th December-A SAINT, YOUR NEW IDENTITY
____________________________________
FOCAL TEXT: 1 Corinthians 1 vs 2►► “To the assembly of God which is at Corinth—those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours”.~WEB》______________________________________
SHALOM greetings, Cherished one. Receiving total forgiveness of sins is one of the packages that believing in Christ brings. Forgiveness is pardoning of your sins. It is letting them go as if they had never been committed. It is receiving the remission of the penalty of your sins. *Forgiveness is freedom or liberty from sin. It is a legal license that sin could not win over you.* It is a gift from the finished works of Christ. Your sins are forgiven to make you free from the power and shackles of sin.
*It makes you free from condemnation, guilt and sin consciousness. It is God’s way to engage you in righteousness consciousness.* God forgives you so that you can serve Him in obedience. Another powerful reality that happens to the believer is he receives a new name or identity. According to our focal text, believers are sanctified in Christ and are called saints. Yes, you are called saint in Christ. That’s your new identity. Hallelujah!
Saints refer to set-apart people or holy or sacred ones. They are sanctified folks in Christ. They didn’t become saints by their own entitlement but through the sanctification of the blood of Christ (Hebrews 10:10). He sets you apart so that you can live for Him alone. You are not called a sinner again, but a saint. *Yes, you cannot believe in Jesus Christ and still be called a sinner. He changes your name and gives and new one.* So stop defining yourself by your old nature; you have a new one in Christ called a saint. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always.
