THINGS THAT ACCOMPANY SALVATION –PART 3

Scripture:  Hebrews 6:9 “But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.”

      Here are some things that accompany our salvation.
      We are told that we have a heavenly treasure now in an earthen vessel.  In 2 Corinthians 4:7 it says, “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.”
    According to Hebrews 8:1 we have a great High Priest.  “Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;” 
    We have been delivered from the power of darkness.  Colossians 1:13 says, “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:”
    Because we are believers and have put faith in the Lord, now all things become possible.  Mark 9:23, “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”
    The Bible also tells us that now, because we are saved, everything is working together for our good.  Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” 
    Another thing that accompanies salvation is that the Lord is our helper.  Hebrews 13:6 says, “So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.” 
    Also we are told that we have peace with God.  Romans 5:1 says, “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:” 
    Then because of our salvation, there is no condemnation.  Romans 8:1 “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” You see friend, the benefits of being saved are far greater than we could have imagined!
