The Christian's identity conflicts with our natural agenda. At the heart of this is the call to purity.
Do you ever get tired of being different? Do you feel that the cost of rescuing people is too great to bear? Do you find a conflict between your new identity and being successful and popular? Christians have a new identity which conflicts with our natural agenda, plans and desires. At the heart of this identity is the call to purity. If we are to be true to our calling and live with integrity, we must be pure.
