What does the Bible say about being clean in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that in Christ, believers are completely cleansed from sin and made clean every whit through His sacrifice.

The concept of being clean in Christ stems from the teachings of Jesus in John 13, where He emphasizes the necessity of being washed by Him to have a part with Him. This washing represents the complete removal of sins through His blood, as articulated in Revelation 1:5, which states that Jesus 'loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood.' Justification in Scripture indicates that believers are not merely covered in their sins; rather, they are entirely cleansed. This is foundational to understanding Christian identity and assurance—believers are declared clean and perfect before God, not because of their actions but due to Christ's complete work on the cross.
