God’s Complete Salvation

The two aspects of God’s complete salvation

The interrelation between the judicial and the organic aspects of God’s complete salvation

There are five ways in which God’s judicial redemption and God’s organic salvation are interrelated (The Organic Aspect 74-76):

  • God’s judicial redemption as the procedure qualifies and positions the believers to enjoy God’s organic salvation.
  • Judicially, the church of God was produced through God’s objective judicial redemption (Acts 20:28). Organically, the church of God is constituted with the people regenerated by God in the divine life (Eph. 1:22-23).
  • God’s organic salvation needs to be maintained constantly through God’s judicial redemption. Thus, when the believers’ fellowship with God is interrupted due to their sins, it must be restored through the redeeming blood of Christ (1 John 1:6-9).
  • The believers’ ultimate transfiguration in their physical body to enter into God’s glory is the redemption of their body (Eph. 4:30; Rom. 8:23). Our rapture and transfiguration to enter into glory is an organic matter, whereas the redemption of our body is a judicial matter.
  • God’s judicial redemption as the procedure is purposeless without God’s organic salvation, the goal. God’s eternal purpose is to have a Body for Christ. This Body ultimately consummates in the New Jerusalem as the enlargement and expression of God for eternity.
