The Stance of a Christian vs. the State of a Christian

Without a proper understanding of God’s Word and how to apply it, we make the mistake of thinking that He contradicts Himself. One example is the difference between a believer’s stance in Christ and his state. Our stance before God as righteous and holy was settled when we accepted Jesus Christ; however, our state refers to the lifelong process of God continually working in us during our journey. We aren’t what we do; God has already declared us His children, regardless of our behavior. God chose us as His beloved even before the foundation of the earth, and our state can never change our stance; this is something to thank and praise Him for.
