The concept of "identity" (and of changing your identity) has been a fascination of society for a long time. But the most important "changed identity" is that which is brought about by the Gospel - people who were hostile against God and doing evil are now reconciled and holy.

Discover who you were before and who you now are in Christ, and be amazed at the One whose death brings transformation.

In this sermon, Pastor Jesse walks us through these theology-packed verses and what they teach us about the deity and reconciling work of Christ.

Theme: The members of the body of Christ are to be doing ministry by seeking to have people reconciled to God and to build others up in the faith. The main job of the elders in a church is to teach the Word and to equip the saints for the work of the ministry. Church members have the responsibility to receive the Word and be doers of it. The purpose of the work of the ministry is always to reconcile others to God and build them up to maturity. God has given each believer special gifting to use in serving one another.
