Christ’s death has transformed those who believe in Him.
We were sinners who were helpless and ungodly enemies of God, yet Christ died for us. Believers are justified and saved, reconciled with God and exulting in Him. We take on Christ’s righteousness in the eyes of God. Thank You, Jesus!
For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
Romans 5:6-11 NASB
