“But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who
became for us wisdom from God— and righteousness
and sanctification and redemption— that, as it is
written, ‘He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.’”
1 CORINTHIANS 1:30,31

written, ‘He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.’”
1 CORINTHIANS 1:30,31
We must be clear: these things are not the “reward” for years of faithful service, or the fruit of walking with Jesus after a long period of time. If I have Him now, then I have all that pertains to Him now. My Wisdom, my Righteousness, my Sanctification, and my Redemption has a personality, for He is all those things in me.
It is not a question of my behavior, or my conduct, or my feelings one way or the other – those things will come into line soon enough – but it is all based upon this accomplished fact. Christ is God’s Gift. I repeat, we have much to praise God about!
