Related to the Christian’s struggle between flesh and spirit is the prevalent struggle of identity. Who do we say that we are? For some, identifying with their sinful condition is perfectly normal and good. Others like to identify with their enneagrams or horoscope personalities. Most often, people identify with their vocation or station in life. The Christian should not be tempted to think in any of those categories, for the new life we have in Christ means our identity is in Him. Paul outlines that identity as he challenges us to “set our minds on the things that are above.”
