Or should it be "Your's" or "You're"?
Wouldn't "with" be more appropriate than "in"?

perhaps "ours" would be better in that case if sybil_the_soothsayer is correct?

Some provide answers, some preach in a language that is incomprehesible. "Have Christ in your heart" Should this be "in your mind" mickey_bling?

To be "in Christ" is to be a believer. It is a distinction that is used over and over again in the NT.

Every true Christian has been " Justified with God by faith in Jesus Christ" (Roman 5:1), that means that when one recieves Christ in his heart at the point of salvation, they are "in" Christ. You can NOT go to heaven on your own efforts or good intent. Only faith in the perfect sacrifice made by Christ to satisfy the righteous requirement of God gets you access to the Father and eternal life. So God imputes the righteousness of Christ to you, and your sin is forgiven. Read the book of Romans in its entirety for further clarification. I hope this clarifies.

The letter(law) killeth: 2Cor 3, being the ministration of death; So such at the end of a letter would be a false Christ, of false Christs shall arise... to DECEIVE.
Christ is the end of the law: Ephesians 2:15; Romans 10:4.
So then y(our)s in Christ would be in him there's
no law at all = no sin IMPuted = no death sting.
Such is at the end of every Pauline "epistle",
including Hebrews and Revelation; And said
token(ticket to heaven) in every epistle is
written with his own hand, as noted thrice.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.

A reminder that all Christians are, through baptism, a part of the Mystical Body of Christ. "I am the vine. You are the branches".

By writing "yours" they are saying that they "belong to you". They are "at your service".
By saying "in Christ" they are unitied with you through the salvation offered by God through His Son, Jesus Christ. Assuming you are a Christian, you and the writer are part of the Body of Christ or, in Him.
They are saying, "I am with you/belong to you, through the unity we have in Christ".

No, 'yours in Christ' is correct and means, 'I am a Christian and I assume you are one too'...
