What do you identify with? You can look at people who identify with their status symbols, such as clothes, cars, and houses, and realize that these are a shallow basis for identity. Do you look at your life accomplishments such as academic credentials, a successful career, or a good reputation and think that these provide a stronger basis for identity? Do you look at the spiritual gifts that you receive from me and consider them to be even more intrinsic to your being? You could make an argument for all of these things but I have given you advance notification that even these gifts will cease. What will you base your identity on then?
