We have said this before but in Gods view the harmonious whole of comprehensive history has already recovered its successful culmination. Presently, if we reasonably believe there are all necessary things to be worked out as instrumental part of the fundamental purpose to this successful culmination then there is reason for us who undoubtedly want to go to heaven and adamantly opposed to going to hell to be horrified. But since the ultimate purpose of the created world is ordered and fixed then we can be certain our eternal salvation is fixed as completely. And in a coherent sense from the precise time of our eternal salvation we are instantly looking at the ultimate fulfillment of the effective end of our eternal salvation to be respectively in the continuous present. So we are looking back from the perfect.
If salvation is deliverance from our ancient way of thinking and the world system then it is indeed experienced as going from death to life. This is invariably why I have devoted so much time sufficiently distinguishing between our living the blessed life and being efficiently delivered from the cursed life. Because the law of God not only pronounces judgement to law breakers but it irresistibly compels all men to be eternally punished in time. And this does not make us look at it as a classic horror movie but it accurately conveys all of the proving of it on God. Not merely does it place God as God to prove Himself faithful to adequately protect His own but it ideally places God under covenant obligations to show Himself faithful.This is why I do not budge about the absolute sovereignty of God.
