is part of being set free, free from our doubts, free from men's doctrines, to know who we are in Christ Jesus, and Him in us as we walk in love and joy and peace that He gives an abundance beyond what the flesh can compare in the world, and why the flesh profits nothing, but godliness is profitable in all things

1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Ephesians 4:15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
1 Timothy 2:8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

To know who you are in Christ Jesus has to be the most important thing any believer has to look into, to stir themselves up enough to take a hold of Him, to understand what the easy yoke and the light burden of this life in Him is, as He is with us and has given us all things in the abundance of life itself that God wants all His own to know and walk in, even as He showed us how. Yes, I could just keep showing the scriptures, there are so many that show it, because they knew Him, just as we are to know Him as well. He makes us free and asks that we help others to find Him through our own witness of His truth, yes, He writes it on our hearts with the joy and rejoicing of knowing His love. All His promises are true, as it is written. We can do nothing without Him, and still with Him remain all things and He in the heart of every believer. Abraham's faith made him a father of many nations; Stephen's faith in Jesus Christ our Saviour opened heaven itself.
Acts 17:26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
Acts 17:27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
