Answered in 1 source
Knowing Christ's accomplishments is vital for understanding the foundation of salvation and the believer’s identity in Him.
Understanding what Christ accomplished through His life, death, and resurrection is crucial for Christians as it shapes their faith and affects their spiritual growth. As stated in Philippians 3:10, knowledge of Christ includes recognizing the significance of His sufferings and how they relate to our salvation. This knowledge fosters a deeper relationship with God, encourages believers to live out their faith in light of His redemptive work, and empowers them to share in the suffering, glory, and eternal life that He promises to those who believe. It reminds believers that they are partakers of His divine nature and beneficiaries of His salvific work.
