The Difference Between Individuality & Personality

When we describe the Godhead, we speak of three persons or personalities. When we speak of a person's soul, we label it their personaity. Personality then identifies the inner-person. Individuality, on the other hand, defines what characterizes the physical or outer man. The total redeemed man is one whose individuality is transformed by a merger with another person and that person being Jesus Christ. No longer does the transformed man seek individuality, rather he strives to imitate Christ. This is what Jesus means when he says go and make disciples of all nations... He means not necessarily to make church members of all people and all nations, but lead people to Him so that they can be transformed and also imitators of Christ.

Daily Prayer: Father the world needs to hear the gospel, but we must start with our own household. Let the members of my house belong to you and let each of us then to and tell the good news of salvation through Christ Jesus . Amen.
