We are saved from the debt of sin, we are being saved from the nature of sin, and we will be saved from the presence of sin. -Dr. David Jeremiah
Salvation is spoken in 3 ways. ¹Christ died to pay for our debt of sin. ²Christ died so that the Holy Spirit could come and ³help us in our nature of sin. Christ rose from death to ⁴justify us, make us righteous, and to 5secure our salvation in death where we will no longer have to 6struggle with sin. We will be transformed like Christ and resurrected like Christ into a new glorified body.
From righteousness to sanctification to glorification.
