Christ Gets All the Glory

The crazy thing is if we had to be saved through the blood of Jesus Christ, why would anyone think they could keep that salvation in their own efforts? Christ paid the price for sin, transforms us when we trust in Him, and He keeps us saved, then He gets all the glory and we get none.

 
Ephesians 1:13-14
"13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of the promise, 14 who is a first installment of our inheritance, in regard to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory."

Romans 8:16
"The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children."

John 14:17
"the Spirit of truth. The world cannot receive Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you do know Him, for He abides with you and will be in you."

When Christ transforms us we understand Him and desire to be continually cleansed by Him.

 
1 John 2:20 "You, however, have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth."

Romans 10:17 "Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ."
