Who am I?

The bible can be an unfathomable book to understand and access. Yet at the core of the message is two simple elements.

1) Who am I

2) How do I live

The second element follows the first. Genesis 1 tells us that we are made in the image of God and Jesus tells us that we are sons of God. Jesus does not only tell us this but enables us to do so and shows us what this identity looks like.

The baptism of Jesus is the inauguration of his public ministry, the actions of Christ. Yet before Jesus acts, we learn that he is affirmed in WHO he is. “You are my Son.” The one truth we MUST have settled in our hearts is who we are. In Christ, we have been made into God’s children. This is not a religious word game but a core truth that God shows us by the power of the Holy Spirit. At the start of this year, allow God to remind you of your true identity. You are made in God’s image and have been made a son.
