* Depending on the context, different ways to translate "in Christ" and "in the Lord" (and related phrases) could include:
* "who belong to Christ"
* "because you believe in Christ"
* "because Christ has saved us"
* "in service to the Lord"
* "relying on the Lord"
* "because of what the Lord has done."
* People who "believe in" Christ or who "have faith in" Christ believe what Jesus taught and are trusting him to save them because of his sacrifice on the cross that paid the penalty for their sins. Some languages may have one word that translates verbs like "believe in" or "share in" or "trust in."
