How can Christians say they are complete in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Christians are complete in Christ because He fulfills all righteousness and sanctifies them, making them suitable for God’s presence.

The declaration that Christians are complete in Christ is grounded in the biblical understanding that all fullness dwells in Him (Colossians 2:9-10). This completeness means that believers lack nothing necessary for their relationship with God and their sanctification. Christ's perfect obedience and righteousness are imputed to them, assuring them that they are seen as holy and blameless before God. As Romans 8:1 states, there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Therefore, believers can approach God confidently, knowing they are fully equipped for every good work through Christ's sufficiency. The completeness in Christ brings peace, assurance, and joy, central to the Christian faith.
