* It's good to suffer loss, for it draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves. * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God.

Salvation: Past, Present, Future

Salvationprocess3tenses
How glorious it is that though totally undeserving, God saves us by his grace (Eph 2:8-9) and mercy (Tit 3:5) alone.

Because of God's saving grace to us we can reflect with joy and thanksgiving all our days upon our salvation in manifold ways--in past, present and future tenses:

  1. Past (Tit 3:4-5; Rom 1:16, 8:24, 10:10; Eph 2:8; 2 Tim 1:9; Acts 16:31).
  2. Present (Phil 2:12; 1 Cor 1:18, 15:2; Rom 5:9).
  3. Future (2 Tim 4:18; Phil 3:20; Rom 5:9; 1 Th 5:8; Heb 9:28).
