Many times we are defined by what job we have, where we live, the education we have obtained, even what religion we practice.  Many things define us to others.

For the followers of Christ, we are defined by our faith.

Because we are followers of the living Jesus Christ, we are not to shrink back to destruction like those without faith in Jesus as their Savior.

Because we are followers of the living Savior and Redeemer, we are to live by faith in Him.  We are those who believe and are saved…for eternity!

This is who we are!  Our Savior is living and is coming again.  Rejoice!

(NIV) Hebrews 10:39 “But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved.”

(NASB) Acts 4:12 “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.”

(NIV) Romans 1:16-17 “I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.  17For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: ‘The righteous will live by faith.’”

Who we are! 
This is who we are!  Followers of Christ who live by faith!
