Working Out

Philippians 2:12-13 Wherefore, my beloved, . . . . work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Working out is not for keeping your salvation, but for working out of your will and into God's will.

Because of the death, resurrection, and ascension of Christ, the Holy Spirit is now available to help work desires of the flesh out of our life. The status may cause fear and trembling.

Working out is exploring biblical teaching concerning the nature of the Christian life.

Working out is allowing the mind of Christ to be in us, to conform us daily to His will.

Working out is willingly serving without murmuring and disputing.

Working out is done with a motive to glorify God.
