In Colossians 1:21-22, Paul reminds us that if you are trusting in Christ alone for your salvation, you must remember four things:
1.) Remember what you once were: Alienated from God, an enemy of God, in bondage to wicked works.
2.) Remember what you are now: Reconciled to God the Father, even though you still live in a sinful world.
3.) Remember what you will be: Christ will present you perfect, faultless and above reproach, on the Last Day.
4.) Remember how the change came: Jesus did it all, by taking on human flesh and dying for you.
