Php 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
which salvation is the verse talking about??
why does Paul specifically say with Fear and trembling??
How do we implement that scripture in our daily lives??
And to whom does that scripture apply?
Apostle Paul writes to the Church, the Body of CHRIST, even to the ones today, as there can only be 'one' body of CHRIST and it's members/body parts.
We have been redeemed from our past, of sin and death and now sanctified as HIS called people, away from carnality and the way of this world, and be parts of HIS SON, and that is our Salvation from GOD given to us as a free gift to 'enter' being from above.
Upon receiving HIS Salvation, hence forth 'work out' to keep that Salvation fit and secure in order to enter 'GOD's place of rest' in future, as HE promised through HIS Word(CHRIST) of the New Covenant. Putting to practice each day CHRIST's teachings of 'spirit and life' of the New Covenant by the Help of the HOLY SPIRIT, in order day by day forsake/bury one's carnality/flesh and conform into the spirit-man, like JESUS of Nazareth their MASTER.
That is therefore the 'work out' to be done, in order to be fit during 'Tribulation' and 'Persecution'.
i hope in the name of LORD JESUS CHRIST, GOD's people be 'built up' in our prophesying and not be once again remain in carnality/flesh and be conformed to the 'pattern of this world' and be rejected by CHRIST Himself, as workers of 'lawlessness' or 'iniquity'.
