Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast By Gospel In Life

It is our nature to seek our identity in the praise of others and in the praise of self. But the praise doesn’t last, and we are never satisfied. God has provided, through Jesus’ death, a new identity to all who know him. This new identity is built on Jesus’ performance rather than on our own; we receive the praise that He deserved. The more we know God, the more our new identity is strengthened and our old identity dies away. This sermon was preached by Rev. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 14, 2003. Series "The Necessity of Belief". Scripture: Jeremiah 9:21-26
