In Christ, 172


~ Exclusive Benefits For Those Who Are Christians: We Are… (1of3) ~

In Christ We Are Justified (absolved from all charges)  ~  Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses” (Acts 13:38-39). 

In Christ We Are Chosen  ~  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love” (Ephesians 1:3-4). 

In Christ We Are Reconciled  ~  “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.  And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation” (Romans 5:10-11). 

In Christ We Are Delivered (from judgment)  ~  “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1a).   

In Christ We Are Filled (have every need satisfied)  ~  For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power” (Colossians 2:9-10).
