The question of identity sits underneath nearly every question of Christian life. Scripture does not begin merely by telling the believer what to do. It reveals who the believer has become through Christ.
The old man is identified with Adam, condemnation, the flesh, fear, self-righteousness, and death. The new man is identified with Christ, grace, righteousness, faith, sonship, love, and life.
