Re: Step(s) to being saved

Works accompany salvation; therefore, salvation glorifies the Lord Jesus in our doing the will of God....in all things. It is not a formula, it is a process in obeying truth that leads the corporate church as well as each individual to the fullness of the measure, to the full stature of Christ; that is, full maturity to the image of Jesus. The book of Revelation reveals Jesus speaking to his church as to perfect works "for I know thy works" is spoken to each individual church...for He requires a bride without spot or blemish that has made herself ready. There is more to come for the church in the glory of Christ through His body in salvation when all that are saved shall hear "well done thou good and faithful servant"..those that have done good speaks volumes as to perfect works and the faithful have kept these things of faith unto the end. Does one have to repent?...of course. Is water baptism required?..of course. Does one have to have the baptism of the Holy Ghost? ...of course. Does one have to be led of the Spirit of God? ....of course. Does one have to obey God and grow from faith to faith; from glory to glory until we all reach the full measure of Christ; all being in the image of Christ? ...of course. Does one have to be holy? ...of course. Jesus has made the way...all we have to do is walk in his footsteps in doing the will of God. just some thoughts....

Thank God
Someone else who feels like I do. I am some days afraid I am the only one that believes that. I know I am not but to hear the way some speak it feels like it.
