Jonathan Edwards:
“That justification that believers have at their conversion is as partaking of the justification that Christ had in his resurrection; and so all the benefits that believers [have], their comfort and hope and joy here, and their eternal life hereafter, is as partaking with a risen Savior.”
Quoted in Warnock, Raised with Christ, 140. Once again the idea of “union with Christ” is seen to be prominent how the resurrection saves us.
