How does God's grace change our identity?

Answered in 1 source

God's grace transforms our identity by making us new creations and giving us a new name in Christ.

Upon experiencing God's grace, believers are said to be born again, leading to a new identity as children of God. In Isaiah 43:1, God refers to His people as 'Israel,' signifying that we are no longer identified by our sinful past (like Jacob, whose name means 'supplanter') but are now 'princes with God.' This change in identity reassures us of our acceptance by God and His everlasting love, which binds us to Him eternally. With our new nature, we can approach life without fear, knowing we are precious in His sight.
