[QUOTE="Soyeong, post: 77596513, member: 375022"] There is an instantaneous aspect of our salvation from sin insofar as we are saved from the penalty of our sin at the moment that we believe, however, our salvation from sin would be incomplete if we were only saved from the penalty of our sin while we continue to live in sin, so there must also be an aspect of our salvation that we are experiencing in the present. In Titus 2:11-13, our salvation is described as being trained by grace to do what is godly, righteous, and good, and to renounce doing what is ungodly, so it is not the case that we are required to have first done those works in order to earn our salvation as the result and it is not the case that we are required to do those works as the result of having first been saved, but rather God graciously teaching us to do those works is the content of His gift of salvation that we are experiencing in the present.
