Don’t forget who you are, so you don’t act what you are not! I | Family Bible Fellowship of Ridgeville

Don’t forget who you are, so you don’t act what you are not! In this wicked world it’s easy to get frustrated, loose site of reality and sometime even pushed to the limits!
Paul reminds us what we used to be here in

Ephesians 2:1-10
“And you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience, 3 among whom we all also formerly conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.”

Dead, walking wickedly, under satanic powers, lustful, freshly, corrupt minds! All no good really! That’s who we were are as an unbeliever! That is until we are saved!

2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us!
“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come”

You and I need to remember who we are, and what once were!


Paul divides Ephesians 2:1-10 at verse 4 with a three letter word! BUT! This is what you used to be, this is who you were!!!!!!! BUT!

4 But God, being rich in mercy because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

Go has a work for you! He has a plan for you! He saved you, not based on your deed, but His grace and created a great work for you! So moving forward, don’t act like who you used to be, rather walk, live and act like who you are in Christ!
