What is the relationship between believers and Christ according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Believers are united with Christ, making them joint heirs of His promises and righteousness.

The relationship between believers and Christ is beautifully portrayed in scripture, depicting believers as joint heirs with Him. Hebrews 2:11 states that those who are sanctified by Christ are considered one with Him, reflecting a deep union that surpasses mere association. Romans 8:17 further emphasizes this, declaring that if we are children of God, we are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. This means that all the spiritual riches and treasures that belong to Christ are now shared with the believers, affirming their identity and value in the eyes of the Father. This intimate relationship provides great security and assurance to the believer's standing before God.
