”But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.” |
Who can express fully the blessings of these words: “In Christ?”
To be “in Christ” means to be chosen “in Him before the foundation of the world.”
To be “in Christ” means that there is now “no condemnation,” accepted “in the Beloved,” and “complete in Him.”
It means that “as He is, so are we in this world.” “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” (Romans 8: 1)
“To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.” (Ephesians 1: 6)
“And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power” (Colossians 2: 10)
“Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.” (1 John 4: 17)
It means everything to be “in Christ.”
