A glorious fight…
We are united to Christ for a purpose: “For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight” (Eph. 1:4). Our new life in Christ is just that: new life. A glorious fight against the world, the flesh, and the devil is at its heart and one of the clearest signs of our union with him.
