The clear declaration over the Christian is 'you are no longer in the flesh but in the Spirit.' This declaration entails the believers security in Salvation.

Consider these four points of our positional sanctification- The work of Christ to deal with sin and condemn it in His flesh has set a foundation for holy living. That foundation is fourfold. 1st vs. 1 we are not under condemnation. 2nd vs 2 we are set free to realize our purpose in the law. 3rd and 4th as considered in this message the full requirement of the law is accomplished in us from the start. And we are set beyond the restrictions of the flesh to live in the domain -range- of the Spirit of Life. The believer begins their life in the wide open place of the Spirit.
