So let me ask you, what happens when we are "saved"?Amen! No OSAS required.
I'd answer this way. We come to understand the Gospel message. We believe that it's true. We put our reliance in the truthfulness of the Gospel, that is, we trust in Jesus to save us. This reliance is the "he believed God, and God accounted it to him as righteousness", and is the forgiveness of our sins. Our sins being forgiven, God unites us to Himself creating in a new life not based in flesh, like our old life, but now based in His Spirit, a completely new life.
Would you agree with this?
Much love!
