Are you feeling discouraged and need some words of encouragement?
Take a moment to reflect on who we are in Christ.
In the Bible Christians (those saved by the blood of Jesus) are described as:
Chosen
Ephesians 1:4
Holy
Colossians 1:22
Blameless
Colossians 1:22
Forgiven
Ephesians 1:7
United with Christ
Ephesians 1:11
Redeemed
1 Corinthians 7:23
A Temple of the Holy Spirit
1 Corinthians 6:19
A slave to Righteous Living
Romans 6:18
Heirs of God
Romans 8:17
Co-heirs with Christ
Romans 8:17
Blessed
Ephesians 1:3
Will live with God for eternity in Heaven
John 3:16
If you are a Christian (redeemed by Jesus), the words and phrases listed above describe you regardless of how you may be feeling today. Christianity is about Biblical truths, not feelings.
If you do not have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ I would encourage you to check out the post Whoever Believes ….
For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins. (Colossians 1:13-14 NLT)
