THERE are many things the believer is said to be “made” in Christ. Sin had unmade us, but grace remakes us.

  1. Made nigh.” Nearness. “Made nigh by the blood of Christ” (Eph. 2:13).
  2. Made righteous.” Righteousness. “Made the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Cor. 5:21).
  3. Made white.” Purity or Holiness. “Washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb” (Rev. 7:14).
  4. Made accepted.” Favoured. “Made us accepted in the Beloved” (Eph. 1:6). The word “accepted” only occurs in one other place in the New Testament, and that is in Luke 1:28, where it is rendered “highly favoured,” or as the margin, “graciously accepted, or much graced.”
  5. Made meet.” Sufficiency. “Made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light” (Col. 1:12). The term “meet” is rendered in 2 Cor. 3:6, “hath made able,” or sufficient.
  6. Made heirs.” Heirship. “Being justified by His grace, we should be made heirs” (Titus 3:7).
  7. Made kings and priests.” Nobility. “Made us kings and priests unto God and His Father” (Rev. 1:6).
