Bible Note: Kalos, That salvation is a gift is not in question. It is simply a gift that is given to those who chose righteousness. Heb 11:5-7 6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. NAS Tim Moran gave you this excellent verse previously: 2 Cor 5:17-21 18 Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were entreating through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. NAS God has given us the plan of reconciliation,. We must act on that plan. AO |
