Contingent identity and vague identity
Analysis, 1995description, and in particular whether it is a. Here the second step would not follow, for the actual referent of b need not be such that it is contingently identical to a. In [5], Harold Noonan considers argument (A). Although its conclusion would be embraced by Kripke and followers, Noonan resists. He offers Gibbard's example of Lumpl, a lump of clay,

Christian Identity Is Identity In Christ
2008This chapter states that Christians do not belong to themselves and do not have their own identity. Their being is in Christ. The grace of Christ is that He takes on death on behalf of people. He liberates the people from their identity that people create as sinners.
