Why is being 'in Christ' significant for believers?

Answered in 1 source

Being 'in Christ' indicates our spiritual union with Him, affecting our identity and the nature of our salvation.

'In Christ' is a fundamental aspect of Christian doctrine; it signifies that upon believing, we are united with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection (Romans 6:3-5). This union means that all that Christ accomplished is credited to us; we are accepted in the beloved and possess new life through the Spirit. The reality of our identity in Christ shapes our understanding of salvation and sanctification, highlighting our dependence on Him for spiritual growth and power.
