What is a Christian

 . In Faith, a Believer in Christ – Mark 16:16

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

. In Knowledge, a Disciple – John 8:31

To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching,  you are really my disciples.

. In Character, a Saint – Romans 1:7

To all in Rome who are loved by God  and called to be his holy people: 

 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

. In Influence, a Light – Matthew 5:14

“You are the light of the world.  A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

. In Conflict, a Soldier – 2 Timothy 2:3

Join with me in suffering,  like a good soldier  of Christ Jesus.

. In Communion, a Friend – John 15:15

I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.

. In Progress, a Pilgrim – Hebrew 11:13

All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised;  they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance,  admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.

. In Relationship, a Child – Romans 8:16

The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit  that we are God’s children.

. In Expectation, an Heir – Romans 8:17 

Now if we are children, then we are heirs —heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings  in order that we may also share in his glory.
