~ I Am Free From Any Charge Against Me
~
Introduction
~ When Christians understand the various
characteristics and aspects of the birthright which came with their second
birth, they comprehend their identity
in Christ. Once Christians understand
their identity, their destiny is also
clear! This series of “Abundant Life
Now” posts will look at one of those facets each week.
This Week’s Verse ~ “What then shall we
say to these things? If God is for us,
who can be against us? He who did not
spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him
also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God's
elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is
also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession
for us” (Romans
8:31-34).
~~~ EXPLANATORY
“IDENTITY IN CHRIST” NOTES ~~~
(1) Each Monday ALN posts an example of Scripture’s
description of aspects/characteristics of Christians—those who have personally
trusted in Jesus Christ, The Messiah, as their personal Savior.
(2) This series is not intended to be an
exhaustive list.
(3) God the Father described Himself to Moses as
the great “I AM” (Exodus 3:14).
God the Son also said “I AM”
(John 8:58).
(4) Jesus Christ is the Son of God and several
times in the Gospel of John He refers to Himself as “I am.” “I am the Bread of Life” (6:35-51), “I am the Light of the World” (8:12,
9:5), “I am the Door” (10:7-9), “I am the Good Shepherd” (10:11-14), “I am the Son of God” (10:36), “I am the Resurrection and the Life”
(11:25), “I am the Way, the Truth,
and the Life” (14:6), “I am in the
Father, and the Father in Me … Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me” (John 14:10-11), and “I am the True Vine” (15:1-5).
(5) Individual Christians are also sons and
daughters of God. This series will show
some of the various “I am” aspects
of a Christian.
