Possessed by God
Possessed by God
John MacArthur: This is John MacArthur. Join me today for Portraits of Grace.
When Jesus said, "I am the good shepherd, and I know my own, and my own know me," he was stating a truth that has been especially dear to me since the early days of my theological education.
I may never fully comprehend the depth of what it means to belong to Christ, but I will forever glory in it.
Peter said, "You're a people for God's own possession," which means God bought us with a price. Christians are uniquely God's because he paid the price to redeem us from the bondage of sin and death.
Thus, we are his, and since we are his eternally, we must live accordingly and rejoice in such a glorious privilege.
This is John MacArthur, encouraging you to live as portraits of grace.
