Why is union with Christ significant for believers?

Answered in 1 source

Union with Christ is significant as it grants believers participation in His suffering and future glory.

Union with Christ is foundational to the Christian faith. It signifies that believers are not only identified with Him in His suffering but also in His eventual exaltation. As stated in 2 Timothy 2:11-12, being dead in Christ means we will arise to reign with Him. This union provides comfort in trials, indicating that our sufferings are shared with the Prince of suffering. In essence, it encourages us to endure present afflictions with the hope of future glory.
