Do you think that people's condition can conform with their position?

—In response to this post: What does it REALLY mean to be 'In Christ'?
I'm pessimistic because I find it's hard for most people to change their mind. Do you think that most people's condition can conform with their position? 

Our 'condition' will never reach our 'position'. The body and mind are subject to sin and corruption. The flesh is unsalvageable and can never be 'fixed', or conformed, to the standards that God requires. This is why the Bible says that we had to die, and this happened when Christ died for us. Read the following verse in Romans,

Romans 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.

So, this death provides us with our 'position' in Christ. In Christ, we are perfect. We have received His righteousness, and our sins have been nailed to His cross. The only thing that remains is our current corrupt body. This is our current 'condition'. It is still tainted with sin. It is still enveloped in this cursed world. All that can be done is for the Spirit of God to work within us to improve our lives for His glory. Our minds and bodies cannot be fixed, but they can be trained in righteousness and obedience. They can be subdued to submit to the workings of the Holy Spirit within us, who came into our heart at our salvation. The goal here is not perfection, as this can never be achieved. The goal is just to give ourselves as much as we can over to God. Fill our mind with His Word. Let His Word dictate our lives and we will slowly find our lives improving and bringing glory to God in the small things we do. Peace will come. A genuine, unforced change will start to show in the things we do and say. This is the slow, life-long walk of sanctification that we walk before God. 

Lastly, it does not matter how far down the road we get in this process. It's not a competition of righteousness. It's a live-long journey. Eventually we will either die, or we will come to that great day of the rapture of the body. In either case, we shed our corrupt body and we are given a brand new glorious spiritual body what will never be tainted with sin and pain again. See what Romans 8 says about this,

Romans 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

The adoption, which is the redemption of our 'NEW' bodies is the final act in our salvation process. God saved our spirit which is positionally perfect before Him already today, but it is only when we receive our new bodies that we are fully transformed into our eternal state and the final product of Jesus Christ's salvation work. AMEN!

Remember, our sanctification is not a work we do. There is no effort on our part in trying to conform to God and becoming holy! No! This then becomes a work of the flesh and something that one can boast about! The sanctification process is the work of God, and He changes us. He works in us slowly and deliberately to develop in us a character of righteousness and a mind of peace and joy.
