Positionally, yes, in the Spirit, much more.
By the Spirit of God and Christ.
Luk 4:1 And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
1Cr 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
Eph 3:5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
Not in the flesh? Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Positionally, who are we? Colossians 1:27-29 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Colossians 3:1-4 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
Who is our life? Who died for us? Who are we dead with? Have we been resurrected with Christ? Who's life are we Hid in? What are we to seek? Much, much more that just Positionally.
We are hid in God, in Christ Jesus by the Power of the Sealing of the Holy Spirit. Not what we are Positionally. Positionally makes us just a Christian on paper, or legally, a far Cry from what God intended by the death of His Son.
In Christ: Positionally, also by the Spirit of Christ, by the Mind of Christ, a New Creature in Christ Jesus: Phillip _________________ Phillip
