1 | Is salvation an ongoing event | 1 Cor 1:23 | jlhetrick | 172181 | ||
Hello Bereaniam, Consider the verse in the context it is presented. Continue to read paying particular attention to vs 23 and 24. Here, Paul is pointing out how the truth of Christ is received. That is, to those who are perishing, it is foolishness. "Being saved" here refers to those who are called (vs 24). This verse taken in context, is focusing on God's power (see again vs 18). So, when Jesus said "it is finished" (John 19:30). What He meant was, It is finished. Along these lines, also consider Sanctification. This IS a thing of ongoing process. Sanctification- God setting the believer apart for Himself: positionally at salvation, progressively throughout life, and ultimately when the believer arrives in His presence in heaven (67). (from Basic Theology, Copyright © 1986, 1999 by Charles C. Ryrie.) Will wait together for the understanding of others. Hope this helps, Jeff |

Jeff, John 19;30 here is huge.When Jesus said it is finished, it was finished. The ongoing process is our relationship and walk with God. Hopefully it's growing and maturing on a daily basis. In Christ, lionheart |

Lionheart, Agreed, as you say, "the ongoing process is our relationship and walk with God. Hopefully it's growing and maturing on a daily basis." Exactly right. This is the process of sanctification. Thanks, Jeff |
