5 Staggering Ways My New Identity In Christ Changes Everything

When I became a Christian, I received a completely new identity in Christ.

I was put into a divine witness protection program of sorts. The old me was erased from the books –  crucified and buried with Christ – and I was given a glorious new identity in Christ.
