Misleading

The great lie of Salvation is that it only takes a moment for the miracle to be manifested in the life of the receiver. The truth of salvation according to the scriptures is that it is at work within the believer and the unbeliever; I would conclude that the receivers of this generation have had salvation at work for them for six thousand years; while the faithful before the time of Christ had faith that salvation would come, it was never fully manifested in their day, yet they remained faithful; however, in our time we have seen or heard of salvation and treat it as if it was granted to us, not to be a working force in our lives, but to be a gift or luxury item we can take out and wear at the most convenient of times.
