What does the Bible say about belonging to Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its affections and lusts (Galatians 5:24).

In Galatians 5:24, it explicitly states that 'they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.' This indicates a definitive spiritual transformation; believers are seen as having already completed this act as it pertains to their relationship with sin and the world. To belong to Christ means being part of His body, His bride, and His special possession, chosen by His electing grace.
