Dear John,
   Please let me share with brothers and sisters this precious revelation.
 

The Three Stages of Salvation
 
 
            1. Redemption:      Jesus saved us                      We have been saved
                                                                                         by love and grace
 
            2. Liberation:         We work out our salvation        We are being saved
               (progressive)                                                        by grace and obedience of faith
 
            3. Perfection:         The Lord will glorify us             We shall be saved
                                                                                         by grace, hope and sanctification
 
            Again:
 
                1. He saved        Lc 1:68   Lc 1:77   Jo 4:42   Jo 12:47  1Tm 2:6   1Tm 4:10
                2. Be saved!       Mt 9:22   Mt 14:36  Lc 1:69   Jo 5:34   Act 2:40  Act 2:47  Rm 1:16-17
                                         Rm 4:3    1Co 1:18  1Co 15:2  2Co 2:15  2Co 6:2   Eph 2:8   Php 2:12
                                         1Tm 4:16  2Tm 3:15  Rm 16:26  2Ths 1:8
                3. He will save    Act 2:21  Rm 5:9    Rm 9:27   Rm 13:11  Php 3:20  1Ths 5:8  2Ths 2:10
                                         2Tm 2:10  Tt 3:7    Hb 1:14   Hb 5:9    Hb 9:28   1Pe 1:5   Hb 12:14
 
             Romans 11:25-26 refers to the final liberation of the whole people of Israel, including the fullness of nations that come in, as comes to end the Great Tribulation, when all of the people of God takes possession of the inheritance of the Earth; the glorification of all saints will be accomplished as the Millenium is brought to completion.

             Greetings in Christ,
