Who are you ? - 2
In this Series we are going to examine the role of the Ego
in determining our Self Identity.
Recently I was watching a prominent American Minister
on a Christian Channel,
espouse his idea of Who he thought he was.
He related,
" I am just a loser like everyone else,
a hopeless sinner with a corrupt nature ,
tainted by sin ."
I can understand why this Minister gave this response,
as he is trying to impress his audience with his humility.
He wants to give everyone the impression
that he is just like everyone else,
and is not trying to put himself above anyone.
In this sense it is commendable,
but it is not Who the Scripture says we are,
and therefore is false humility.
Essentially these outbursts are in reality
just boasts of the ego.
In order to determine Who we are,
we must uncover the Secret in the Book of Romans,
which we will begin to uncover in the next Part of this Series .
