EXACTLY the point, pnsn. Eph. Chapter 2 is THE explanation of being IN CHRIST> and thank you very much!

"Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace are ye saved;)

And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus;

That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Eph. 2:5-9).

located just ONE verse above the post in question, the "created in Christ Jesus for good works", is the Gospel of the Grace of God. That places the believer IN CHRIST JESUS.

What are you saved from and when do you know you are for sure?
