“Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.” A little girl was in church with her mother when the preacher read this verse in the passage of scripture, here he was reading. And when he read this verse the little girl said in a stage whisper to her mother, she says, “Mama, you can’t work out salvation unless it’s first been worked in, can you?” That’s a very good question. You can’t work out a salvation unless it’s first been worked in.
