Galatian 3:11
Every part of my life must live by faith.
Why is it that when you talk faith, people get mad? I mean other believers, as if you are doing something God told you not to do.
When you read the Bible, God is always trying to get His people into position. In the Old Testament, it was the Promised Land. Now, under the New Covenant, it is understanding that we are the righteousness of God in Christ and allowing our identity to be shaped and formed by the character of God.
Some believers would rather identify with their flesh than learn who they are in God. Yes, we understand that all have fallen short and that our spirit and flesh are in a constant battle. However, that is exactly why believers need to understand that we need Jesus and that we cannot do this by ourselves.
Learning who you are—not just knowing that you are saved—is so important. Because you cannot live by faith if you do not know who you belong to.
"The just shall live by faith" means that the only way you can truly do that is by learning who you are in Christ. When you know who you are, you learn how to live, how to think, and especially how to speak.
So every believer must learn who they are in order to live by faith.
