God the Father predestined.
Ephesians 1:5
he predestined us for
adoption to son ship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will—
God the Son shed his blood.
Ephesians 1:7
In him we have redemption
through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of
God’s grace
God the Holy Spirit
guaranteed.
Ephesians 1:13-14
And you also were included
in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation.
When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy
Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of
those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.
Trinity
in Sanctification
God the Father prunes
John 15:2
He cuts off every branch in
me that bears no fruit, while every
branch that does bear fruit he prunes so
that it will be even more fruitful
God the Son cleanses

You are already clean
because of the word I have spoken to you.
God the Spirit works
2 Thessalonians 2:13
But we ought always to thank
God for you, brothers and sisters loved
by the Lord, because God chose you as first fruits to be saved
through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth.
Quotes about Christianity
“A silly idea is current that good people do
not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to
resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation
after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour
later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness.
They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.” ― C.S. Lewis, Mere
Christianity
.. “In truth, there was only one Christian and
he died on the cross.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche
.. “I have come home at last! This is my real
country! I belong here. This is the land I have been looking for all my life,
though I never knew it till now...Come further up, come further in!” - C.S.
Lewis
