I was just thinking about the transition between sinner & saint, and it occurs at the moment of repentance. I say moment of repentance, and not minute of repentance. The way Jesus operates is so far above the way we see things, that is why I can never stop learning about him. I know he knows everything, so if I want to know the truth I have to know him. It is a very interesting thing though. The operation of salvation involves a lot of things, but we see it so simply.
I was thinking about it though, when we are being saved, at the same time we are being converted from darkness into light. Now, we know that darkness is the absence of light. So there is really no in-between with salvation, either you are being saved or you are perishing. SEE! It is dynamic. I said BEING SAVED, and PERISHING. Why? It is because those who endure till the end will be saved. Some people think that if they live in darkness they will be saved, but that means they have not gone to the Light. This is how lukewarm servants will end up in hell too (You cannot serve two masters).
I don't like to analyze Jesus, I just would rather think of how glorious he really is, and just be dumb in his presence. I could be dumb all day, like a lamb, sitting under the perfect wing of the shepherd. I think it is when we become dumb that we can best follow Jesus, because then we will not buck like a goat.
Maybe when I read this again I will not understand it, but this is just how I feel about the Lord.
Sometimes I can only understand some things I write about the Lord, only if a FRESH revelation comes. It is better that way, so that it is not my own knowledge that can figure it out, but a pure and fresh revelation from God.
EDIT: YES! It is like being ever drawn to light in the case of a saint, and ever drawn to darkness in the case of a sinner. Please Go to Jesus!! He is light, he is life!!
