spiritual foundation

One of the great joys of walking with Jesus is to realize the influences that He uses to shape our lives. God has used a trio of influencers in my life to shape my thinking about Jesus and walking with Him as His follower. This author blessed me this week, even though he's been dead for @90 years. Enjoy what Oswald Chambers said to me this week. . .  

"I am not saved by believing; I realize I am saved by believing. It is not repentance that saves me, repentance is the sign that I realize what God has done in Christ Jesus. The danger is to put the emphasis on the effect instead of on the cause.  The salvation of God does not stand on human logic, it stands on the sacrificial Death of Jesus. We can be born again because of the Atonement of our Lord. Sinful people can be changed into new creatures, not by their repentance or their belief, but by the marvelous work of God in Christ Jesus which is prior to all experience. The impregnable safety of justification and sanctification is God Himself. We have not to work out these things ourselves.; they have been worked out by the Atonement."
