It is written, If anyone is in Christ, he is a new
creation; old things have passed away;
behold, all things have become new.
( 2 Corinthians 5:17 *NKJV )
Dear Addison,
Today we will look at what our true identity in Christ is,
and what it means as well. So let us begin...
[We are justified, declared not guilty of sins]
Being justified freely by His grace through
the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
(Romans 3:24)
[No condemnation awaits us]
There is therefore now no condemnation to
those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not
walk according to the flesh, but according
to the Spirit. ( Romans 8:1)
[We are set free from the law of sin & death]
Because through Christ Jesus the law of the
Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin
and death. (Romans 8:2)
[We will be made alive at our resurrection]
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all
shall be made alive. (1 Corinthians 15:22)
[We receive God's righteousness]
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin
for us, that we might become the righteousness
of God in Him. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
[We are all one, with all other believers]
For you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you
are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed,
and heirs according to the promise.
(Galatians 3:28-29)
[We are blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ]
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ, whop has blessed us in the
Heavenly realms with every spiritual
blessing in Christ. (Ephesians 1:3)
[We are adopted as God's Children]
In love he predestined us to be adopted as
his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance
with his pleasure and will. (Ephesians 1:4-5)
[We will be brought under Christ's headship]
To bring all things in heaven and on earth
together under one head, even Christ.
(Ephesians 1:10)
[The Holy Spirit marks us as belonging to God]
you also were included in Christ when you
heard the word of truth, the gospel of your
salvation. Having believed, you were marked
in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,
who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God's
possession (Ephesians 1:13-14)
[We can come with freedom into God's presence]
In him and through faith in him we may
approach God with freedom and confidence.
(Ephesians 3:12)
[We have been given fullness in Christ]
You have been given fullness in Christ, who
is the head over every power and authority.
(Colossians 2:10)
[We will have Eternal Life]
Therefore I endure all things for the sake
of the elect, that they also may obtain the
salvation which is in Christ Jesus with
eternal glory. (2 Timothy 2:10)
