Identity Bell

If our resources have blessed you, please share them.

For many years, a popular Internet forward has been a “bell” that tells of identity in Christ. It is often circulated at Christmas, but it “rings” with a message that goes far beyond the incarnation of Jesus. It “rings” of the work Jesus did to redeem you and me because it tells of the benefits we received when He saved us. This “bell” should be rung to remind us of the precious gifts that are ours. It should be rung in our hearts as the joyful sound of our salvation, and it should be rung as a reminder that all we have is from Jesus and all we are is found in Him.

This bell “rings” with the “sounds” of love, joy, mercy, grace, and peace, all given to us by Jesus. It “rings” with hope, and it is a reminder of the strength we have in Jesus. It “rings” with encouragement to face each and every day.

Read my poem, “Ring the Bell of Identity in Jesus,” and then print the “bell.” Tuck the “bell” in your Bible. “Ring it” (read it) every day. It “tolls” of the riches of Christ. Awake, every day, remembering who you are in Christ and letting the “chimes of this bell” sound in your hearts!

Ring the Bell of Identity in Christ
by Shari Abbott

When dark clouds creep in; When life hits a low
Remember that Jesus has hope to bestow.

He’s given us life; Joy, peace, comfort, and rest.
He’s given much more; In Him, we are blessed.

In freedom, we live; At one with our Lord.
We’ve answered His call; The greatest blessing of all.

We now know Him well; His grace He’s revealed.
We know that in Him; We dwell and we’re sealed.

No longer we seek, Our identity on earth.
We are His, He is ours; In our glorious rebirth.

Let us always remember, What Jesus has done.
The riches He’s given; With Him, we are one.

May joy ring this bell; His love we proclaim.
May peace ring this bell; And hope do the same.

May we ring this bell, To extol His great Name.
And tell all the world, Of the joy that we claim.

With identity in Jesus, We ring this bell loud.
To make a joyful noise, To our Saviour, our God.

Do You Know Jesus?

The Bible clearly states that everyone has sinned and fallen short of God's glory (Romans 3:23). It also emphasizes that while the wages of sin is death, God offers us the incredible gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23).

If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, know that today is the day of salvation (Acts 28). Turn away from your sinful past and turn to Jesus. Remember, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ will be saved” (Romans 10:13). Don’t wait—find hope and redemption!
