What does it mean to be fearfully and wonderfully made in reference to salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Being fearfully and wonderfully made in salvation means that every believer is created anew in Christ with a new nature.

The phrase 'fearfully and wonderfully made' applies not only to our physical creation but also to our spiritual regeneration. In 2 Corinthians 5:17, we learn that 'if anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.' This transformation is a miraculous act of God where He imparts a new nature to believers, making them partakers of divine life. As a result, they are now seen as righteous in the eyes of God, having Christ's righteousness credited to them, highlighting God's sovereign grace in salvation and the awe-inspiring work of His Spirit.
