Why is the concept of being not our own important for Christians?

The idea that we are 'not our own' (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) underscores the profound truth of belonging to Christ. Being bought with a price means that Jesus is our owner and protector. He takes responsibility for our spiritual well-being, guiding us and providing for our needs. This understanding fosters a sense of security and comfort for believers, knowing that they are cared for by their Savior who will not lose any of His own (John 10:28-29). This ownership gives Christians purpose and assurance as they live according to God's will.
