An Identity Secured
1 John 2:12-14
Our security in this life is found in the central hope of the gospel which is the offer of forgiveness of sin in Christ. As a result of this redeemed and restored relationship, we know the Father intimately. For the seasoned saints among us, the challenge is to avoid becoming crusty and calcified in our walk of faith, while drawing comfort that the infinite Father cares for us in our finitude. The younger and stronger must harness their vigor and energy for the kingdom, while remembering not to put our confidence in that which cannot save, but rather in God abiding in us.
