Who am I

Page 1

Who am I? Why was I born? What do I do with my life? When will I understand the meaning of life? How can I become the person God created me to be?

Who is God? Why did God make me? What plan does God have for my life? When will God’s revelation pierce my heart? How will God bring clarity to my purpose in life?

Quickly the Basics. • God created human beings for His pleasure – to receive His love and return that love to Him; and to love other humans with that same love. • No other creature in the universe has this capacity. • God created earth for man. • God gave Adam & Eve their identity (in His image) to have dominion over the earth (Gen 1:26­28) • Satan stole Adam & Eve’s identity by deceit. o What do I believe about the nature and character of God? o Do I desire truth over a lie? o Do I desire my own way over His way? o Will I allow anyone or anything have more influence in my life than God? 1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].

Each human being is unique (DNA, fingerprints, etc.) God enjoys diversity. God has given us free will. God is sovereign. God created all things – including Satan. God knew that Adam & Eve would not overcome the serpent in the garden. God is working His likeness (Christ) in us through our lives. God has three eternal objectives for humans: 1. children for the Father 2. bride for the Son 3. temple for the Holy Spirit

We cannot know the answer to any question about ourselves apart from the knowledge of God.
