Arrogance? Or Truth?

I make these statements about myself.

Is it arrogance? Or am I simply agreeing with my Father?

What do you think?

All the things you mention, have their foundation resting upon the Salvation obtained by Jesus on the cross. He alone is worthy. Salvation is not of works....lest anyman should boast.

Eph 2:8.

The 'foundation' must be assured at all times. Otherwise as you question, the words, though scriptural are a falshood.

You are certainly not being arrogant for you are stating what you truly are. Somebody once told me the hardest thing we will ever do in this world is to know who we truly are. Youre statement goes alongway to revealing this truth.
I believe we only step into arrogance when we start to proclaim we are these things and others are not!

I believe that the words "I Am" are two of the most powerful words a believer can say because they will lock them in with the Father. God is therefore I am. Claiming these promises these words of the bible will have the effect of clarifying (perfecting) our awareness of our identity with Divinity which conceives and controls all the details of our lives by faith.

Those things are certainly true of our inner man (spirit man or born again spirit) and are manifest as our minds become renewed, we walk in the revelation and power of the Holy Spirit.
While I can absolutely say my spirit is Christlike and pure (Col 3:10, 1Jn 5:18) I can also say my soul is only in the process of manifesting what has happened in my spirit (Eze 36:26). As my spirit receives revelation form God my soul is renewed by the Word of God through the Spirit of God and my body follows. Thus I manifest the sanctification imparted to me by my Lord Jesus Christ. All such goodness comes from God and He alone receives glory.
If I wish to manifest more of this life of God I must :

Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

2Co 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Welcome!
