What does the Bible say about the riches of Christ?

The riches of Christ are described as His great salvation by grace alone, as stated in 2 Corinthians 8:9, where it says that though He was rich, for our sakes He became poor, so that we might become rich through His poverty. These riches include perfect righteousness, eternal justification, sanctification, glorification, union with Christ, grace, mercy, and joy unspeakable. Solomon's Proverbs also affirms a stark contrast between the righteous and the wicked, emphasizing that true wealth is not measured by earthly standards but in one's relationship with Christ. The richness of Christ grants believers a sense of rest, as salvation is entirely by grace and not dependent on human efforts or merit.
