Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts , to which indeed you were called in one body ; and be thankful . Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you , with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs , singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
Colossians 3:15-16
Some Christians are easily confused with the concept of salvation since it is presented in the Bible in past , present & future verb tenses . We need to Go back to the basics , Let's start by taking a look at what the Bible says about about salvation.
1# But because of his great love for us , God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions it is by grace you have been saved.
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God .
Ephesians 2:4-5,8
2# So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God , who has saved us and called us to a holy life , not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time .
2 Timothy 1:8-9
3# But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit .
Titus 3:4-5
The Bible teaches that all of us who have put our trust in Christ have experienced salvation , but we should not use this as licence to do whatever we want , The Bible teaches us that because of this gift of salvation Jesus has provided us a second chance to change our lives for the better .

Elisha this part of your blog really got to me.As I was reading it I started to think about all the things and events I have ever experienced or done and as I thought I started to realize just how important God and Jesus really are and I guess I finally realized that and I realized how much opportunity that he has given us and that we really should devote our whole life to him.I guess what I'am trying to say is that I'am so thankful for the blog that you just wrote because it showed me and led me into a whole new path.Thank you.Sophie
