Christ is full salvation in three tenses: past, present, and future. That is to say, in Christ you have been saved; you are being saved; you shall be saved. Three terms describe the three tenses of our salvation in Christ: justified, sanctified, and glorified.
We have been saved. That is justification by faith in Jesus Christ. We are being saved, growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18). That is sanctification. We shall be saved. That is our glorification, when Christ returns. In essence, we shall be like Him (1 John 3:2).
In Christ is our justification, sanctification, and glorification. It's all by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8-10). He is our full salvation. In Christ, we are justified and free from all condemnation. In Christ, we are being sanctified until glorified. In Christ, we shall be glorified, when he appears.
Our full salvation is complete in Christ. Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ (Philippians 1:6). In Christ, we have been justified (Romans 5:1). In Christ, we are being sanctified (1 Corinthians 1:2). In Christ, we shall be glorified (1 John 3:2).
