Many of us still live, as if our old identity defines us. We allow past failures, current struggles, or others’ opinions to shape how we see ourselves. But freedom comes when we begin to live from our new identity in Christ.
You don’t have to earn these truths—they’re already yours. The question is: Will you believe them and begin living as the new creation God declares you to be?
Here are 7 powerful truths about who you are now in Christ
1. You Are Completely Forgiven
“But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.”
1 John 1:9 NLT
The weight of guilt and shame has been lifted from your shoulders. In him we have redemption through his blood. Complete forgiveness. Our sins, past, present, and future, have been washed away, not because you earned it, but because of Christ’s sacrifice.
2. You Are a New Creation
“This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”
2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT
Your transformation in Christ isn’t just an improvement—it’s a complete renewal. You’re not just a better version of your old self; you’re an entirely new creation with a new nature and purpose.
3. You Are God’s Beloved Child
“But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.”
John 1:12 NLT
You’re not just forgiven or tolerated, you’re deeply loved and wanted. You have been adopted into God’s family with all the rights and privileges of sonship.
4. You Are Righteous

6. You are free from the Power of sin
“For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin.”
Romans 6:7 NLT
