To answer that question it would mean to first understand the term "Christ," what it means and what it is. And also how it's used when speaking of the Christian congregation and its relationship to the Lord Jesus Christ. At 1 Corinthians 12:27 it says: "Now you are Christ's body, and members individually," in a spiritual sense.

You see, those ones who are "baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death," with hope of being "joint heirs with Christ." of the heavenly Kingdom. (Romans 6:3-5; 8:17) They share in "the sufferings of the Christ," being "reproached for the name of Christ," (1 Peter 4:13,14; 5:1)

Even a number of times this relationship is described as being "in union with Christ" or "in Christ," and also the reverse expression "Christ in union with you," with its different implications, is used. (Romans 8:1,2; 16:10; 1 Thessalonians 4:16; Colossians 1:27)

Also when weak ones in such association, who should be strong, are called "babes in Christ." (1 Corinthians 3:1) So in the course of time all things in heaven and on earth are gathered again "in the Christ."- Read also Ephesians 1:10.
