We are the light bearers

Philippians 2:12 wherefore my beloved as you 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. What does it mean to `work out your salvation`? Many people mistakenly think Paul was telling us to work for our salvation. But Jesus say in john 6:28–29 to believe in him is the only work, beloved your salvation experience isn’t the end of your spiritual journey. He say take my yoke upon you and learn from Me for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your soul for my yoke is easy and my burden is light.(to work is to rest in Christ)

Once you have trusted Jesus as Savior, you now begine to live out what he give you, which is His abundant life. When you’ve given your heart to Him, the Holy Spirit now indwells in your heart, He is with you forever. It is God’s Spirit working in and through you that empowers you to live out your salvation. The degree to which you yield to Him impacts the work in you, and the changes He will effect in your life.

To work, is you start to study the Bible and learning.1pet 2:1–2, As your faith and relationship with the Lord develop, you will begin to notice Him moving in your life. When you share your faith and your blessings with others, you’ll notice God working through even more avenues. Keep following Him, and you will see the seed He planted flourishing you, (Isaiah 55:10-11). So when Scripture says we’re to `work out [our] salvation,` it means we need to reverently live out what’s already been given to us—and allow the life of Christ to come fully to fruition. Your salvation should become an expression of Jesus’ life wherever you are. As you preach the gospel among your friends and family, on the job, in school, and even with strangers, God’s Spirit will energize you to make a difference and impact others—in other words, to be salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16). To work is to shine as lighter in this world.so let your faith have work, faith without work is not faith, our faith producers separation from the world and submission to Jesus Christ who love us and gave himself for us. Brethren may the grace of God be with your spirit, Amen and Amen.
