What does it mean to be a Christian?
Big Idea
A Christian is someone who belongs to Christ by faith and is being changed by His grace.
Aim
By the end
We want a simple, biblical answer to the question, "What is a Christian?" The answer is more than background, morality, church attendance, or a religious label.
A Changed State
God has done something in you. See 2 Corinthians 5:17.
A New Relationship
Your standing before God has changed. See Romans 5:1-2 and Ephesians 2:13.
A Set Of Beliefs
Christianity tells us what is true about Jesus. See 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.
A Way Of Life
Obedience does not save us, but saved people learn to follow Jesus. See Ephesians 2:8-10 and Titus 2:11-14.
