WHO WE ARE IN CHRIST
part 1- We Are Accepted:

JOHN 1:12
But as many as received Him, to them gave He
power to become the sons of God, even to them
that believe on His name!

Today I begin a new series on who we are in Christ -I am not sure how long this will take - but there are many points I need to make about this subject- its important to know who JESUS says we are - for what He says is all that matters- many in this life will call you many things- but just because people say it does not make it true-lets find out together just who HE says we are!

When we receive Jesus into our lives by faith -He receives us - He takes possession of us -once before the fall of man we belonged to Him but the fall took us away from that intimate relationship man had with God - this was all taken away with one bite of the forbidden fruit - God saw our choice long before we ever made it and HIS heart ached -He had a plan from the beginning - He would send HIS SON to this world to die for our sins and anyone who accepts HIM as SAVIOR will be saved- this is who we are in CHRIST - we are now HIS children once we surrender our lives to HIS LORDSHIP - once this takes placed our lives are changed our a destiny changed -we are brought into a right relationship with GOD through JESUS the SON - We are now accepted as Righteous in CHRIST -its not our righteousness but HIS - HE has given it to us - HE has claimed us as HIS own - we now belong to HIM - He purchased us a very high price- The Death of HIS only Begotten SON!
Lets celebrate our acceptance that comes from CHRIST today and forever more -we now belong to HIM forever! amen!

A SIDE NOTE:
When it comes right down to it -God knew what He was purchasing with HIS SON - you and me - HE loves us with an unending love -We are now HIS children and He has us in HIS mighty hands! Be secure in this!
