918. Work out your own salvation with God

Work out your own salvation with God - 2 Corinthians 7:5-6, 2 Corinthians 7:8-11

2 Corinthians 7:5-6

5 For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without (outwardly) were fightings (a battle), within were fears.

6 Nevertheless God, that comforteth (to call aside, to appeal to) those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;

2 Corinthians 7:8-11

8 For though I made you sorry (grieved) with (by) a letter, I do not repent (regret), though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.

9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry (grief), but that ye sorrowed (grieved) to repentance (a real change of mind from sin itself; change of moral thought : from sin nature to spiritual nature; alway for the better): for ye were made sorry (grieved) after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage (suffer loss) by us in nothing.

10 For godly sorrow (grief) worketh (to work out) repentance (a real change of mind from sin itself; change of moral thought : from sin nature to spiritual nature; alway for the better) to salvation not to be repented (regretted) of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

11 For behold this selfsame (very) thing, that ye sorrowed (grief) after a godly sort, what carefulness (diligence: steady application in business of any kind) it wrought (worked) in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves (speech of defense, verbal defense), yea, what indignation (physical pain and irritation), yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire (inward passion, a longing for) yea, what zeal (boil, seethe), yea, what revenge (vindication)! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
