God Sees You According to Jesus

God does not relate to you based on your record.
He relates to you based on Christ’s.
Paul says,
Ephesians 1:6
Accepted — not tolerated.
In the Beloved — ἐν τῷ ἠγαπημένῳ — “inside the One fully loved.”
When God sees you, He sees the righteousness of His Son.
He hears Christ’s perfection in your prayers.
He sees Christ’s obedience credited to your account (Romans 5:19).
This is why Hebrews says,
1 John 4:17
Not “as you perform.”
“As He is.”
Your standing is not fragile.
It rests on a foundation that cannot be shaken — the finished work of Christ.
This truth isn’t a license to sin.
It’s the power to walk free from it.
You become when you realize God relates to you through Jesus, not through your flaws.
