2002. Our Union With Christ
The doctrine of salvation is central to understanding our relationship with God, and the concept of union with Christ is a profound truth that underlies every aspect of redemption.

This union is not just a spiritual truth, but has practical implications for our daily lives, including our identity, value, and freedom from sin and death. [... more]

The Glorious End of Life in Christ
The Apostle Paul teaches that as children of God, we are destined for glory, and our future state is secured through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The glory of God was lost due to Adam's sin, but Jesus Christ has come to restore it, and we are called to share in His glory. Our suffering is not meaningless, but rather it is the raw material out of which God creates the specific glory that He means to put into our lives. [... more]

New Life through Our Union with Christ
Our fate is determined by the head of the humanity or body to which we belong. If we belong to Adam, we share his guilt and death is our destiny. But if we belong to Christ, all his righteousness and life are ours. This union with Christ gives us a new status before God, and for that status and identity to be felt, it's a radical ongoing business. Christians must take arms against the idea that they have any identity more basic than sharing the Son's own life before the Father. [... more]
