Listen "Our Identity and Destiny In Christ"
Episode Synopsis
**1. We stand humbled before God**Heb. 2:6 - But one has testified somewhere, saying,"WHAT IS MAN, THAT YOU REMEMBER HIM?OR THE SON OF MAN, THAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HIM?Ps 8:3-4 - When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; 4 What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him?Ps 90:12 - So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.John 8:31-33 - So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." 33 They answered Him, "We are Abraham's descendants and have never yet been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, 'You will become free'?"Job 42:3-63 'Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?'"Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand,Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know."4 'Hear, now, and I will speak;I will ask You, and You instruct me.'5 "I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear;But now my eye sees You;6 Therefore I retract,And I repent in dust and ashes."**2. We were created in glory and honor**Vs7-9 - "YOU HAVE MADE HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS;YOU HAVE CROWNED HIM WITH GLORY AND HONOR,AND HAVE APPOINTED HIM OVER THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS;8 YOU HAVE PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET."For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him.Gen 2:7 - Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.Gen 1:24-28 - Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and it was so. 25 God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.28 God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth." **3. Man's sin separated him from that glory.**8b. - But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.Isa 14:12-1512 "How you have fallen from heaven,O star of the morning, son of the dawn!You have been cut down to the earth,You who have weakened the nations!13 "But you said in your heart,'I will ascend to heaven;I will raise my throne above the stars of God,And I will sit on the mount of assemblyIn the recesses of the north.14 'I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;I will make myself like the Most High.'15 "Nevertheless you will be thrust down to Sheol,To the recesses of the pit. Rom 8:15 - For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, "Abba! Father!" 16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him1 Cor 6:2-3 - Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels?
