What the New Testament Says About Who I AmSample

Who Am I? Redeemable:

WE ARE DEAD PEOPLE WITHOUT GOD. Sin has its ugly grip on how we think, how we talk, how we act, and how we ultimately view ourselves and God. Sin corrupts us.

At the same time, we are not without hope. This is entirely because God has chosen to act in a miraculous way. Picture an artist who takes material that once had value but has become rusty, worn down, and in need of complete repair and turns it into a stunning work of art. That’s what God is like with us. He sees our value even though we are dead and broken.

If we accept His grace over our lives by believing in His Son, Jesus, as our Redeemer, a miracle happens: He makes us alive again! Ephesians 2:8-9 declares, “God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.

Belief in God redeems us and restores us to our intended value. God desires to remake us and display His grace in us as His masterpieces. No one is too far gone to believe in Him and be redeemed as part of His great work of grace. All of us need redemption and He's the artist who can miraculously achieve it.
