An Eternal Union With Christ
\nThe believer\u2019s eternal union with Christ is a subject that few seem to grasp, though it is written as with a sunbeam upon the pages of Holy Scripture. We are \u201cAccepted in the Beloved,\u201d and have been from eternity. That union of our souls with our Savior was made by the triune God himself before the world began, and can never be dissolved or even altered. The Lord God sees us in His Son, as one with His Son, and as His Son, because we really are in His Son, as one with His Son, and as His Son. Therefore it is written, \u201c\u2026as He is so are we.\u201d As no spot, blemish, or any such thing is in Christ, but only perfection, His Father is well pleased in Him, and with all who are in Him. The Book of God declares, \u201cHe hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel\u201d (Numbers 23:21). Therefore, we shall \u201chave boldness in the day of judgment: because as He is so are we in this world.\u201d
