Full Salvation In Christ

Full salvation is in Christ our Lord. "Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ" (Philippians 1:6). In Christ you have been justified (Romans 5:1). In Christ you are being sanctified (1 Corinthians 1:2). In Christ you shall be glorified (1 John 3:2).

Full salvation is in three tenses: past, present, and future. That is to say, in Christ you have been saved; you are being saved; you shall be saved. Three terms describe the three tenses of your salvation in Christ. As a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, you are justified, sanctified, and shall be glorified.

You have been justified by faith in Jesus Christ. You are being saved, growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18). That is sanctification. You shall be saved. That is glorification, when Christ returns. In essence, you shall be like Him (1 John 3:2).

Justification, sanctification, and glorification are by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. In Christ is your full salvation. In Christ you are justified and free from all condemnation. In Christ you are being sanctified until glorified. That's your full salvation.
