Reflections on “Identity Theft Among The Household Of Faith;” a word, out from the kingdom, ministered to the body of Grace and Truth.
When confronted by the Caterpillar, in Alice in Wonderland, Alice was asked that question; to which she replied “I hardly know, sir, just at present – at least I knew who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been 'changed' several times since then.”
Changed, indeed. It is written: “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are 'changed' into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” [2 Cor 3:18]
We are 'changed,' such that: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; YET NOT I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me.” [Gal 2:20]
In the sanctuary, we sing: I'M NOT MY OWN, I BELONG TO JESUS. HE PURCHASED ME; I'M ALL HIS. BOUGHT WITH A PRICE; THE BLOOD OF JESUS. I'M NOT MY OWN, I BELONG TO HIM.
Do you know who you are?
ThenSingsMySoul:
IF YE THEN BE RISEN WITH CHRIST, SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE; WHERE CHRIST SITTETH AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD.
SET YOUR AFFECTIONS ON THINGS ABOVE, NOT ON THINGS OF THE EARTH; FOR YE ARE DEAD, AND YOUR LIFE IS HID IN CHRIST, IN GOD.
[Col 3:1-3]
