Once you accept Jesus in to your heart you are one with Christ. There is longer anything that separates you from the love of Christ, your sins are forgiven. Ephesians 2:14 says "For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the diving all of hostility". Then it continues a few verses later to say in Ephesians 2:16 " and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God though the cross, by which he put to death their hostility." When Christ died on the cross the final sacrifice was made. I think a lot of times Christians think that they still are some how separated from God. They think there sins are to horrible for them to be completely forgiven by God. That's not at all true! God has forgiven us, we are apart of him now. In Ephesians 2:19 it says "Consequently you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household." You are one with Christ and apart of his kingdom if you have give your life to him. It's the best thing in world to know that are forgiven and one with Christ.
