@Behold: I love Philippians 1.6: "He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ".

Amen !

WE give God our faith in Christ and God takes it from there... as "God Himself is faithful to complete it".

Our part is to learn to understand "so great a Salvation" and in this understanding, we find God's Grace to empower our Discipleship according to "Christ always gives me the Victory".... over the world, the flesh, and the Devil.

...1 Corinthians 15.57 speaks of the victory; and the stedfastness and abounding service of 1 Corinthians 15.58 follows on from it.... :)

Thanks for the Great Question - it was found, in the study, on page 18:

"...Too Late

In our first example, the people did go up to take the land, but not
until after God Had Revoked His Order to do so. When the spies returned
from searching out the land, most reported that any attempt to take it
would be sheer suicide (Num. 13:31-33).

The people believed their evil report, and God responded by reversing
His previous command. No longer were they to go up and take the land,
but now were commanded to remain for a generation in the wilderness.

“But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in
this wilderness. And your children shall wander
in the wilderness forty years...”
(Num. 14:32,33).​

But rather than submit themselves to the change, the people presumed
upon God to act on His Former promises, promises of a time now past,
and no longer theirs to claim. Someone might say,

“But at least they obeyed in the end. Better late than never, right?”

But that’s exactly the problem, they didn’t obey at all! You see, to “obey”
a commandment that God has revoked is not obedience, and to do so
contrary to the present instruction is outright transgression:

“And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress
the commandment of the Lord?”
(Num. 14:41)...​
"
(D Stewart - Dispensational Or Disobedient?)

GRACE, Peace, And JOY...
That's a great point!

Much love!
