HAVE YOU BEEN SAVED?

Salvation is Process

    Salvation,however is far too rich a concept to be limited to a three-second statement.This apprroach is not only nonbiblical but unworkable as well and ultimately reduces the essence og christian life to a one time decision that does not transform one's life.In this view of salvation,it is not the christian but rather God who is changed.the person remains corrupt but God sees the person differently because of his or her faith in Jesus.The person is not transformed by God's grave but rather hidden by it.

    Salvation is a process,a believe that is based on what the Bible reveals to us about salvation.It is a past,present and future reality all that the same time.The only proper response to the question "Have you been saved?"is Yes,i have been saved;and i presently working out my salvation in fear and trembling and i joyfully anticipate and hope for the coming of Jesus Christ at the end of time.

    Only on that day will my salvation be complete,or as the apostle Paul put it,When all things are subjected to Him,then the Son himself will also be subjected to the one who put all things in subjection under Him,so that God may be all in all.(1 Corinthians 15:28).This Process can be traced in ten stages through the words of scripture itself.Lets take a moment to see what the World of God says about salvation.
