Who You Are in Christ "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:1
The key to living a victorious Christian life is to discover who you are in Christ. Many Christians have never discovered this. They remind me of the man who had an identity problem and an energy crisis at the same time. He didn't know who he was and he was too tired to find out.
God doesn't work from the outside in. He works from the inside out. God doesn't modify our behavior in order to change us. He changes us in order to modify our behavior.
You're never going to purify the water by painting the pump. That's legalism, and that's a dead end to discovering who you are in Christ.
Take God's Word and find the phrase "in Christ." As you find phrases that apply to your life, write those down. Begin with phrases such as "no condemnation" now that you are "in Christ."
