A Great Salvation – Terry Crockett

Great provision in the Day of War when death and destruction is all around.  See the war before you as flames — just like, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego walked into the flames not of death but God’s Salvation of Grace.  (Grace to overcome all things)  And see the 4th Man walking with you!

Who else ‘saw’ the 4th Man of Salvation but ungodly men who ordered their death.  Amen

Who are these men who walked in the fire entering another dimension in extraordinary Devine Protection. God’s Righteous Judgment was executed and death was denied!  Judgment of the wicked is far from the Judgment of the Righteous — a world of difference.

Salvation has been obtained by the Lord Jesus Christ and is a powerful message in this hour! Amen

You’ve been appointed, called and summoned for hour of great trial in the Earth to testify of God’s Salvation.  His Presence living among His own proving, Christ holds death in His hand, ruling over it.  Death bowing to a Greater King who conquered it, at His Cross!

Do not let fear enter in, for it has no place in the child of God.  Fear resides in the house of the wicked.  His day has come and time masters world events, according to the King’s pleasure.  As I command the Seasons, Time, the downfall of kings and kingdoms, so I command My Salvation for heirs and partakers of My Atonement.  

This day has not taken Me by surprise, for I’ve seen it from afar and My Grace will be poured strongly upon a Remnant I’ve called.  Good news and great joy, for a Savior who was born, just for this day and hour!

Salvation exalted above terror, destruction and death!  Let My Name be exalted and be Praised at the Salvation given unto men.

Hallelujah, Amen

Papa and The Lord of Glory

Amen

1 Thess 5:9

For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Matthew Poole’s Commentary

And the apostle here makes salvation stand opposite to wrath; what before he called destruction, 1 Thessalonians 5:3, he here calleth wrath, because God’s wrath produceth it, and is manifested in it. And those that are saved are delivered from it; and the supreme reason is, because they were not appointed to it, but to salvation, and none that are appointed to the one are appointed to the other. The vessels of wrath and of mercy are set in an opposite distinction, Romans 9:22,23, 

1 Peter 1:5

Who are kept in the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Ellicott’s Commentary for English Readers

Unto salvation.—These words “unto” arise like point beyond point in the endless vista. “Begotten unto an inheritance, which hath bee reserved unto you, who are kept safe unto a deliverance.” This Salvation, spoken of again in 1Peter 1:9, must not be taken in the bald sense of salvation from damnation. Indeed, the thought of the perdition of the lost does not enter at all into the passage. The salvation, or deliverance, is primarily a deliverance from all the trials and persecutions, struggles and temptations of this life—an emergence into the state of peace and rest, as we can see from the verses that follow.

Ready to be revealed in the last time.—How such an assurance helps to form the very “faith” through which the treasure is secured! That perfect state of peace, that heavenly inheritance, is not something to be prepared hereafter, but there it is. If only our eyes were opened, we should already see it. It is all ready, only waiting for the great moment. The tense of the word “revealed” implies the suddenness of the unveiling. It will be but the work of an instant to put aside the curtain and show the inheritance which has been kept hidden so long behind it. This, however, will not take place till the exact period (so the word for “time” suggests; comp. 2Thessalonians 2:6), and that period will be the last of the world’s history. For such teaching the Hebrews would be well prepared by the Old Testament—for instance, comp. Daniel 12:9; Daniel 12:13—and it was the earliest kind teaching culled for converts out of the “oracles of God” (Hebrews 5:12; Hebrews 6:2).

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous runneth into it and is safe.’ ‘He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.’ ‘Israel shall dwell safely,’ says one of the old prophets, ‘in unwalled villages, for I will be a wall of fire round about her.’ The psalmist said, ‘The Angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him.’ And all these representations concur in this one thought, that we are safe, enclosed in God, and that He, by His power, compasses us about.And so no foe can get at us who cannot break down or climb over the encircling wall of defence.  And just before that He said to them, ‘In the world ye shall have tribulation, but in Me ye shall have peace.’ Kept, guarded as behind the battlements of some great fort, which has in its centre a quiet, armoured chamber into which no noise of battle, nor shout of foeman, can ever come. ‘In Christ,’ though the world is all in arms without, ‘ye shall have peace.’ ‘Guarded in the power of God unto salvation.’

1 Peter 1:13   (Passion)

So then, prepare your hearts and minds for action!  Stay alert and fix your hope firmly on the marvelous Grace that is coming to you.  For when Jesus Christ is unveiled, a greater measure of Grace will be released to you. 

MacLaren’s Expositions

But they are on the road. And so in Peter’s conception, the apocalypse of glory, which is the crowning manifestation of grace, is rushing towards us through the ages, through the spheres, and it will be here some day, and the beams will strike upon our faces, and make them glow with its light. So certain is the arrival of the grace that the Apostle deals with it as already on its way

So say all the New Testament writers. ‘When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall we also appear with Him in glory’ says Paul. ‘The grace that is to be brought unto you in the revelation of Jesus Christ,’ chimes in Peter. And John completes the trio with his ‘We know that when He shall appear we shall be like Him.
