Experiencing Christ Day-by-Day as Righteousness, Sanctification, and Redemption

It is of God that all the born again Christians are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom to us from God: both righteousness and sanctification (holiness) and redemption (glory) (see 1 Cor. 1:30). All the believers in Christ are part of the church, and God’s purpose for the church is first that it would have […]

Christ Became Wisdom to us from God as Righteousness, Sanctification, and Redemption

God’s purpose for the church is to subdue His enemy by displaying His multifarious wisdom through the church.
