What is Salvation?
What is it?
Salvation is Jesus.
He Himself IS Salvation.
He is YOUR Salvation.
So, if you have Jesus, you have Salvation.
Is Jesus in you?
Then you have Salvation.
If we look at the parts that make up salvation.....
What are they?
They are all Jesus :
He is Grace.
He is the Blood Atonement.
He is Eternal Life.
He is The Resurrection.
He is the Bridge who reconnects sin forgiven man with Holy God.
Jesus is Righteousness.
Jesus is Salvation.
When Paul was in Antioch, He gave us the pure understanding of what to preach and how to understand the Gospel.
Look at Acts 13:38 -39.
Paul said 2 things.
1. Through this Man, the Messiah, you have forgiveness of Sins. (All)
Jesus bore them all.
2. Everyone who is born again is justified. IN other words, you are eternally completed by becoming the very righteousness of God.
Jesus is God. So, when you are "in Christ", you are In God.
Notice what has happened to the born again person.
There is a substitution, a literal transformation whereby what they were is now changed into what they are become and remain.
See, when you are born again, you leave the darkness and enter the Light Of Christ.
You leave the past and become the eternal Life.
You end.... and God's Righteousness becomes your NOW you are.
And this change, from sinner to Saint, from ungodly to Godly, from unrighteous to the righteousness of God in Christ, is performed by GOD unto the believer.
Are you born again? Then you are Changed and forever.
Before you were God's creation, but now that you are born again, you are God's CHILD....family.
Old things, the old you, the sinful ungodly you, has passed away and the new you, the New Creation in Christ has now become the REAL You.
And notice. You can do nothing to cause this, and you can do nothing to undo it.
Here is the thing you can never change, after you are born again, even if you mess up and fall, and fail, and commit carnal deeds..
What you can't change, is the fact that God does not see them, he only sees the You that has been redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb.
Most of you worry about what your old man is doing, or might do tomorrow, while God the Father does not even SEE your old man.
Paul tells you to see that old you as DEAD, and that is because in God's eyes, its dead.
You are not the former you, you are now the NEW CREATION.
God only sees the REAL you. The Eternally Forgiven you. The Righteous you.
He only sees you now, as what Jesus has recreated you to be by His own Blood Atonement.
See the new you? Its the one that is born again.
Thats the REAL you.
Thats the only YOU that exists in eternity.
Thats the only you that exists in the Eyes of God, today, tomorrow, and forever.
