| Résumé: | John Murray once wrote of the doctrine of union with Christ that ‘It is not simply a step in the application of redemption…it underlies every step of the application of redemption.’ Union with Christ is a doctrine with significant soteriological import.

After working towards a definition of union with Christ, the ecclesial implications will be considered for baptism, membership, and communion. |
