Subject: Salvation: Instantaneous, progressive? |
Bible Note: Dear Nolan, Greetings in the name of Jesus! I am not saying that we are born again and again. I am not saying that we re-crucify Jesus. Both of those statements imply that we lose are salvation and are in need of another jolt of salvation juice, and I have never said anything of the sort. I have always been a champion of NOT losing salvation, so these statements are far from applicable to my opinion. (not contention:-)) I am saying (again) that I believe that sanctification and glorification are part and parcel of our salvation experience, our still-progressing knowledge of God, and the God-initiated relationship we have with Him to the fulfilling of His purposes. You are saying that salvation is our justification experience, that leads to sanctification, that leads to glorification. Frankly, that doesn't sound too different from what I have been saying all along. (except that you insist on using the word instantaneous) :-) Friend Nolan, why do you keep saying that I am saying that we are born again and again, saved again and again? I do not believe in several tiers of salvation, nor do I believe in a flip-flop relationship with God based on our works. Peace and joy in Christ Jesus, charis |
