How does union with Christ impact a believer's identity?

Answered in 1 source

Union with Christ means believers are spiritually one with Him, sharing in His death and resurrection, which defines their new identity.

The doctrine of union with Christ is essential to understanding a believer's salvation and identity. The Bible teaches that when Christ died, believers died with Him, and when He rose, they were raised to new life. This spiritual union is so profound that it transforms a believer’s status before God. As stated in John 6, believers are called to 'eat' His flesh and 'drink' His blood, symbolizing their need for Him as the source of spiritual life. This union signifies that believers are no longer defined by their sin but by their identity in Christ, making them righteous, accepted, and loved by the Father as His children.
