SALVATION IS... Salvation is not a recited prayer, declaration of faith, ministerial proclamation, or church membership: Through supernatural union with Christ we are reconciled to God, a new creation freed from the power of sin and death. Having died to sin’s rule we are enslaved to righteousness, willing to crucify Self daily, allowing the Christ-Life to emerge replacing our old Self-life. This is Grace, the freedom not to sin... the freedom to be like Jesus. So Rejoice! Salvation is a supernatural experience producing dramatic immediate evidence and continuing ongoing evidence of Christ’s indwelling Spirit, if we are truly saved. God’s goal for us is not a label, “Christian”, but a lifestyle embedded in holiness, reeking of “Christlikeness.” The “evidence” of salvation is our transformation into the nature of Christ: Self must decrease, and He must increase. The release of the Christ-Life within is our only hope of godliness. So... salvation without change? Well... it simply is not possible... Visit my Blog for other God thoughts: saltypeople.blogspot/
