God's Simple Will!

Grace ambassador

Well-known member
Precious friend(s), for your Prayerful And Careful consideration:

"But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not
trust in ourselves, but in God Which raiseth the dead: Who delivered
us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in Whom we trust that He
will yet deliver us;" (2Co 1:9-10 KJB) =

The Three Tenses Of God's ETERNAL Salvation:​

Is not the Solution to Confusion recognizing God's Differences Be-
tween "HIS Relationship With us," And "our fellowship with HIM!"?

God's Will, Today, Under HIS Pure Grace? Very Simply:

► faith ◄
1) Past Tense = "...God delivered us from so great a death...":

God Establishes HIS Eternal Relationship With those who
humbly repent (change mind that "sin is Wrong!") and:

believe, 100% trust, place Total faith, In The LORD JESUS CHRIST,
HIS Death (Precious BLOOD), Burial, And HIS Resurrection,
According To The Scriptures! (1Co 15:3-4; Eph 2:8-9; Rom 3-5 KJB)

"GRACE Through faith" In The Merits Of HIS ALL-Sufficient BLOOD Results:

All sins Forgiven, His Eternal Life, And, Peace With God!
(Eph 1:7; Col 2:13; Rom 6:23, 5:1)

This Is Eternal Deliverance From the Penalty of sin,
The So Great A [ Second ] Death! (Rev 21:8) =
Justification and Spiritual Sanctification (2Co 1:10a cp Rom 3:24 KJB)

1) ► faith ◄ God's ETERNAL (One-Time Only) Justification/Relationship Is
First, And, Then:

Rightly Divided (2Ti 2:15 KJB) From "Things That Differ" *

►► love ◄◄
(2) Present Tense = "...God doth deliver us...":

All believers Should do "good works (faith which worketh by love!)"
{Which will Never Equal CHRIST's Payment For the above Penalty of sin!},
for Which we Are Created In CHRIST JESUS, to perform for Him, having
"been Called into fellowship With Him!" (Eph 2:10; 1Co 1:9 KJB)
Amen?:

We "work out our own salvation" (Phil 2:12). This
Should Be a lifetime of Daily submission, and renewing,
being "not conformed to this world" (Rom 12:1-2 KJB),
for Grace Deliverance From the Power of sin!}
(2Co 1:10b KJB) = personal sanctification:

(2a) Christ Living In us, To Fulfil:

All Of His Law, In ONE Word: ►► love ◄◄ thy neighbor​
as thyself!" (Gal 5:14; Rom 13:8-10 KJB)​

(2b) His Spirit Guiding and Teaching us, How To:

"Study to show thyself Approved Unto God, a​
workman that needeth not to be ashamed, Rightly​
Dividing The Word Of Truth!" (2Ti 2:15 KJB) *

Eternal Results: reward [ or loss ] (1Co 3:8-15 KJB),
ruling and reigning [ or not ] With CHRIST, Which Will Finally Be
At The Judgment Day!

►► love ◄◄ and, Finally:

Rightly Divided (2Ti 2:15 KJB) From "Things That Differ" *

►►► Blessed Hope ◄◄◄
(3) Future Tense = "...God Will Yet Deliver us":

CHRIST's Glorification of All "members" Of HIS Body!!
{This Is Eternal Deliverance From the Presence of sin!}
(1Th 4:13-18; 1Co 15:51-57; 2Co 1:10c KJB).

Hallelujah! Praise HIS Excellent Name!!
----------------------------------
Conclusion:

BIG Differences Between the Three tenses Of God's Eternal Salvation,
And Between God's Relationship And our fellowship! Correct?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Please Be Very RICHLY Encouraged, Enlightened, Exhorted, And Edified In
The LORD JESUS CHRIST, And In His Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided! *

"Things That Differ" (online)

To The Praise And Glory Of His ( Amazing ) Grace!! Amen.

'For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant
of our trouble which came to us in Asia,
that we were pressed out of measure, above strength,
insomuch that we despaired even of life:
But we had the sentence of death in ourselves,
that we should not trust in ourselves,
but in God which raiseth the dead:

Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver:
in Whom we trust that He will yet deliver us;'

(2 Cor. 1:8-10)

Hello @Grace ambassador,

Looking again at your initial reference, and looking at it in context, the words highlighted above impressed themselves upon my mind. That the trouble that Paul and his fellow-workers were subjected to in Asia, which was so very severe, to the extent that they were reduced to the point of despairing even of life: was allowed by God that they may trust wholly in Him, who raises the dead.

Their minds were transported beyond this present life to the life to come, in resurrection, in Christ Jesus their Lord, and thereby they were enabled to endure, by trusting in God Who would raise them from the dead.

'Wherefore seeing we also
are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us lay aside every weight,
and the sin which doth so easily beset us,
and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;
Who for the joy that was set before Him
endured the cross, despising the shame,
and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.'

(Heb 12:1)

Praise God!

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris
