What does union with Christ secure for believers?

Answered in 1 source

Union with Christ secures the believer's eternal safety and acceptance before God.

Union with Christ secures several vital benefits for believers, chief among them being eternal safety and acceptance before God. As our Savior declared, 'I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish' (John 10:28). This means that our existence is no longer dependent upon our merits or actions but entirely upon the sufficiency of Christ’s work on our behalf. Furthermore, this union assures us of God’s unwavering love, as we are viewed in Christ’s righteousness: God loves us as He loves His Son, for the same reason—because of His obedience and sacrifice (John 17:23). This unbreakable bond grants us lasting assurance, providing comfort and hope as we walk through life knowing that we are eternally secure in Him.
