Why is it necessary for Christians to be accepted in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Being accepted in Christ is crucial because it assures believers of their righteousness before a holy God.

Acceptance in Christ is non-negotiable for believers as God is righteous and cannot overlook sin. Romans 3:10 declares, 'there is none righteous, no, not one', emphasizing that human efforts at righteousness are futile. For a holy God to accept sinners, they must be seen as righteous, which is only achievable through Jesus Christ. Ephesians 1:6 refers to believers as accepted in the Beloved, affirming that our justification and acceptance are based solely on Christ's finished work on the cross. This acceptance allows us to stand before God without condemnation, rooted in the righteousness of Christ.
