We don't work FOR salvation.
We work FROM salvation.

So, our good works do not secure a change in enternal destiny.
RATHER, our change in eternal destiny changes us into fit vessels for good works that He has prepared for us to do.

We work because we are already saved, and by virtue of this gift and the deposit within by which all of the divine attributes are now being mingled and infused into our innermost beings ... we awaken to new desires and new wants.

Tit 2:14
[Christ] gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous for good works.

These wants are "strange" to us, and our new desires appear "strange" to the world. For "strange" means that it is come from beyond this world.

I am vexed by my faithlessness. I want to be rid of sin (some sins more then others.) And I don't know of a single thing that I have ever done that lead me to these desires. I don't credit bible-study, greek-parsing of scripture, quiet-time, prayer-warrior ... nothing! It must be something that GOD is doing in me that is the genesis for this soul in this ape-suit to be so concerned with the things of God and His kingdom.

So join me, if it suits you to, and lets encourage each others growth in this realization of God's Kingdom, and its manifestation in our wants and our works. And as this occurs we can both delight and give praise and honor to Whom it is deserved, for never once have we ever been able to produce such fruit. We bear (not produce) the fruit of the Vine.
