- The blood of Christ cleanses us 100%
- Our life is hidden with Christ - He is our life (we were put in Him by God)
- Believers are made God's children because of His life in us
- Our identity is in Him
- Though we saints may sin, we are no longer identified specifically as "sinners"
If none of the above is clear, I suggest reading through this thread, which gives various verses and illustrations regarding the matter. (or just ask) |
The list again does not give a complete and accurate picture. It reflects our positional status, objectively, but it's short on the subjective side. We could be living in the opposite of each of these items.
