God is causing effect in YOU by his labor - Philippians 2:12-16
Philippians 2:12-16
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out (effect or achieve) your own salvation (safety or preservation) with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which worketh (to form by labor) in you both to will (the emotional will to do) and to (work) do of his good pleasure (desire).
14 Do all things without murmurings (self uttering in a low and private voice/manifest discontent) and disputings:
15 That ye may be (become) blameless (not open o criticism) and harmless (unmixed or pure), the sons of God, without rebuke (blemish), in the midst of a crooked (bent sideways from dryness) and perverse (distortion or twist) nation (generation), among whom ye shine as lights in the world (kosmos);
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
