Who Am I in Christ?Your Identity in ChristYour identity defines who you are and is often linked to what you do, what you like, where you are from, or howyou see yourself. For example, notice how some people introduce themselves for the first time. “Good morning. Myname is Dr. Simms. I’m a pediatrician.” “Hi, I’m Allen. I’m from New York.” “Hello everyone. My name is Mike andI’m an alcoholic.” “Hello, I’m Janet and I have three children.”As the above indicates, people identify themselves differently. Everyone, however, has a common identity apartfrom Jesus Christ. This common identity is linked to what we have done, as Romans 3:23 says, “All have sinned and fallshort of the glory of God.” It doesn’t matter if someone sinned a little or a lot. Everyone has sinned and can be identifiedas a sinner.On the other hand, when one turns from sin and places faith in Christ, that person has a new spiritual identity.[See Life’s Most Important Decision at 20Decision.pdf and SpiritualRealities Before and After Receiving Christ at ad of being defined in relation to sin, a believer is defined by Christ’s righteousness and is viewed as being “inChrist.” The Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 1:30, “But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to uswisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption.” (emphasis added)It may initially be difficult to understand, but Jesus Christ can live in and through you and, as a result, your identityis linked with Him (Galatians 2:20).Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.” (emphasis added)The moment you believe in Jesus, you have a new identity in Christ. For example, when He died on the cross, youdied on the cross so that you could live with Him (Romans 6:6-8).Romans 6:6-8, Knowing this, that our old self was crucified with him, in order that our body of sin might be done awaywith, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; 7 for he who has died is freed from sin. 8 Now if we have died withChrist, we believe that we shall also live with Him.” (emphasis added)When He rose from the dead, you rose from the dead (Colossians 2:12).Colossians 2:12, having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised up with Him through faith in theworking of God, who raised Him from the dead. (emphasis added)You are in Christ and Christ is in you. He is your identity! This does not mean you are equal with Christ. It doesmean that your old life has passed away, and your new life is found in Him (2 Corinthians 5:17).2 Corinthians 5:17, Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new thingshave come. (emphasis added)This profound change is multi-faceted and brings us to the question Who am I in Christ? The many answers to thatquestion comprise a catalog of the things God does for believers at the moment of salvation. These fundamental realitiesare for every believer in Christ and encompass the foundational truths of justification and sanctification.Justification declares once-for-all that a believer is righteous and holy before God now and forevermore.Justification is what God has already done on behalf of every believer and is perfect and permanent.Sanctification refers to God’s continuing work in a believer’s life that results in on-going Christ-likedevelopment. This process is life-long but will not bring any believer to perfection in this life. Totalsanctification is complete only when a believer is in the physical presence of the Lord Jesus Christ.As a believer, your identity in Christ is not based on your personal goodness or worth. Instead, your identity is ademonstration of God’s grace at work in you to justify you and to sanctify you in Him. The Apostle Paul realized theYour Identity in Christ 2014 WordTruth, Inc—http://www.wordtruth.netVerses taken from the New American Standard Bible Copyright 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The LockmanFoundation.

(explanation added)The following list presents New Testament characteristics of believers in Christ. These “I am” characteristics appearin the order of the New Testament books. (This list is also summarized at its conclusion under the two categories of completeand in process.) Reading the list will provide some level of encouragement, but you will fully realize the God-glorifyingbenefits only when you embrace and incorporate these truths into your life.NOTE: You may be surprised at the number of New Testament references in this document that address the question“Who am I in Christ?” In spite of the abundance of verses, there are many others that were omitted because of acommon message with verses already listed. Additionally, descriptions of the writers of the New Testament or othermentioned believers are not highlighted even though their characteristics are applicable to believers of any age. Forexample, the following self-description of the Apostle Paul is not listed even though believers around the worldcould describe themselves similarly.Philippians 3:7-11, But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ. 8 Morethan that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I havesuffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ, 9 and may be found in Him, not havinga righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comesfrom God on the basis of faith, 10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of Hissufferings, being conformed to His death; 11 in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.Plus, all Old Testament passages that are applicable to followers of Christ, such as the 23rd Psalm, are also notreferenced.Even with these purposeful omissions, the following characteristics provide ample reasons for every believer tocontinually give thanks and praise to God for “who I am in Christ.”If you are a believer in Christ, then based on your identity in Him, you can legitimately say, “Because ofGod’s grace, I am ” the salt of the earthMatthew 5:13, You (plural) are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made saltyagain?
