Walking the Jesus Walk: Stepping into Your New Nature

Who are you created to be? In this message, Mark Ellis explores what it truly means to “walk the Jesus walk” by understanding our restored identity and new nature in Christ.

Signs, wonders, and kingdom authority are not produced by religious formulas—they flow naturally from abiding in the Father and knowing who we are in Him. Drawing from Genesis, 1 John, and 1 Corinthians 13, this teaching unpacks how Jesus operated in perfect alignment with the Father, how the fall distorted our nature, and how Christ restored us as equal co-heirs. Discover how walking in love casts out anxiety and fear, transforms how we treat one another in community, and releases the authentic power of God in everyday life.

Key Takeaways & Themes:
Abiding Over Formulas: Why Jesus only did what He saw the Father doing, and how abiding produces fruit.

The Original Design Restored: Understanding Genesis 1:26–27 and what being made in the image and likeness of God means today.

Co-Heirs with Christ: Realizing that as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17).

Love Casts Out Fear: Addressing anxiety, doubt, and offense through the revelation of God’s complete love.

Love in Community: Moving beyond apathy and cancel culture into biblical restoration and honor.
