P. 33
Being “made the righteousness of God in
Christ” depicts who you are in Christ Jesus.
For God was in Christ all the while
reconciling the world unto Himself. (2
Corinthians 5:19); and He would have man to
value his soul according to the estimate-as far
as he can comprehend it-that Christ has
placed upon him. IN CHRIST- I AM:
I am a new creation. At my second
birth I became a new creature in Christ
Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:17). Therefore:
I am reconciled to God, by God
Himself, through Christ Jesus (2
Corinthians 5:18).
I am justified by faith (Romans 3:28).
I am made righteous by the obedience
of Christ (Romans 5:19).
I died with Him in baptism and was
raised to newness of life in His
resurrection (Romans 6:1-6).
I am dead with Christ, so I will also
live with Him (Romans 6:8).
I am indeed dead to sin and alive unto
God (Romans 6:11).
