Karl Barth on Identity in Christ - Christocentric (1 Peter 2:9)
"We are chosen IN CHRIST—the Chosen One. We are priests THROUGH CHRIST—the Great High Priest. We are holy BY CHRIST—the Holy One. Our identity is derivative, participatory, Christological. Apart from Him, we are none of these things; in Him, we are all of them." — Karl Barth. Christocentric: identity in Christ.
