Salvation isn't a one-time thing. It's a process. We don't just say one prayer and then walk away...continuing in our sinful life as usual. Understand that as soon as we confess and repent...as soon as we accept Jesus as our Savior...we begin to change. God begins His work of grace in our lives. Slowly, day by day, we'll be given the power to walk in His ways. We'll be given the desire to DO what is right. We'll be EMPOWERED and STRENGTHEN...so that we can be useful in HIS ministry. You see, this process of change won't stop...until the day we draw our last breath.
