Because of His Finished Work....

I thought this quote really sums up what God has done for us through and because of Christ's work.  What He did has made us complete - completely new, completely forgiven, completely righteous, completely alive, completely accepted, completely united with Him!

Here's the quote:

By faith we rest in what God has already done in the unseen and eternal realm within us.  He has made us His holy, blameless, irreproachable children.  He has made us the righteousness of God in Christ.  Our old man died with Christ.  We have been raised with Christ as completely new creations, born of God's Spirit.  He has made us perfect in His sight.  There is no condemnation.  He has become one with our spirit, through which He manifests His life to the world.
