What does the Bible say about rejoicing in Christ?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that we rejoice exclusively in Christ Jesus, as He is the source of our salvation and true joy.
The Apostle Paul emphasizes in Philippians 3:3 that true believers rejoice in Christ Jesus alone. This rejoicing is not merely about feeling happy but involves a deep glorying in the person and work of Jesus Christ. It is a radical departure from the self-centric rejoicing that dominates the world; believers find their joy in someone other than themselves, which is made possible only by God's creative power in their hearts. In Galatians 6:14, Paul declares that he will boast only in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, emphasizing that all spiritual blessings come through Him and should lead us to a life of gratitude and rejoicing in God's grace.
