Salvation: A Work in Progress

Pastor Dale Thornton continues a study in Philippians. He rightly describes salvation as a work in progress. While our justification (being made right with God for eternity) takes place at the moment we receive Christ as Savior, salvation also encompasses becoming more like Christ through sanctification and one day receiving a glorified body free from the effects of sin. So our salvation is an ongoing process -- but still solely the result of God's grace and not our human effort.
