Become conformed to the likeness of Christ.

*Working out* doesn’t mean earning it. It means working through it, living it out.

We are saved. Work it out = live it out. Live as a saved person would. Over come sin. Overcome evil with good.

But the fact remains if once saved always saved the the whole statement “WORK OUT YOUR SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING” does not make sense.

Why work out?

Why FEAR and TREMBLING? What is there to be scared about?

Once saved always saved.

In spite of sophmoric parsing, if once saved always saved Paul was wrong.
