“YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM”

“YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM”
Colossians 2:10
The believers standing in Christ does not fluctuate with his feelings,
not even the increase or decrease of his faith or understanding or
anything else. He stands complete in Christ. God would never trust any
of His children to stand before him at anytime in their own selves –
that is, in their merits or certain good frames of mind. He knows our
frame. He remembers that we are yet dust. Therefore, He has on purpose
provided for them this perfect standing in Christ Jesus. “Ye are
complete in Him,” the Holy Ghost said. He says in another place, “Ye are
perfect in Christ Jesus,” (Col. 1:28.) The very nature of our God
requires us to be perfect and complete before Him at all times. He, out
of necessity, therefore provided all this for His children: a
perfection, a completeness, which can never be diminished. It is as
unchanging as God himself, (Hebrews 6:17; 13:8). Every true believer may
walk through this world in perfect liberty, free from anything and
everything – yes, even his sin, fear of condemnation, and all else that
would cause him to doubt of his completeness. He may freely come to God,
worship Him, call Him “Father,” and this he may do at all times with the
utmost confidence and thankfulness, because in Christ he stands, first
and foremost and always, complete before God. “O thanks be to God for
Jesus Christ.
