Hello again PJ, You may get some longer explanations but let me quickly refer you to the verse your question concerns (I'm at lunch and don't have a lot of time right now). I believe you are on the right track with your question and I believe the answer is yes and yes or perhaps better stated... both. In the verse you ask about Paul, I believe, states clearly the answer to your question. To my knowledge and understanding, the Bible only has one teaching regarding the "power of His resurrection" that is salvation for the believer. So Paul is talking about salvation. Paul goes on to say "...AND the fellowship of His suffering, BEING CONFORMED TO HIS DEATH" (emphasis added) I believe this to be Paul's reference to what is kown as "sanctification". That is, the process that is worked in us by the Holy Spirit as He conforms us to the image of Christ. We still need look no further than this book for the answer. Phil 1:6 For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. (NASB) Hope this helps, Jeff |
