What is the significance of being united with Christ in holiness?

Answered in 1 source

Being united with Christ means believers share in His holiness and are set apart for God’s purposes (1 Corinthians 1:30).

Union with Christ is a profound theological truth that signifies believers are incorporated into His very life (1 Corinthians 1:30). This union means that we share in His holiness; as He is holy, so are we to be considered holy. This connection is not rooted in our personal merit but in Christ’s finished work on the cross, through which He has made us 'the righteousness of God' (2 Corinthians 5:21). Consequently, our behavior should reflect this divine nature we possess, leading us to pursue holiness as children of God and transform our lives for His glory.
