Benefit from a thing is to the degree of toil to use it, even grace and salvation. (sinners, Christ)

[SIZE=6]In India many refugees got free land and home from government. But majority of them soon lost it as they didn’t give importance to easy-got it. They reveled and enjoyed themselves selling whatever they got. But those people who bought it by their hard earned money used those to prosper. The refugees now have become their daily laborers on their previously owned lands. We can see other instances such as big lottery winners become paupers and big inheritances frittered away in small time destroying their owner in the end. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=6]Parents give free food to the child but it grows according to the toil of its digestive system. If it doesn’t assimilate, food is useless. Teacher may give free teaching but it is useless, if student don’t assimilate it in his mind to work on it. Assimilation is often harder work than giving. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=6]Absolute love Christ and Heavenly Father gives his love to all sinners(even devil) as sun shines over all(Mt5-46). But only a repentant (for trampling love in Heaven to fall here) sinner regains faith to open himself to that love. He can assimilate that love like a growing tree. He puts that love to do love-works increasing it. Then it integrates his soul parts together more and more within him and with Christ. Love’s nature is binding. Then his strongly love-bonded soul can’t be broken down by pain and death. It is eternal life, automatic salvation. But loveless others are loosely integrated to break down by small suffering. Their personality (soul) is lost sometimes even here as in mad people. But majority’s soul dies in eternal death after body destruction.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=6]So Christ’s grace and salvation is a free gift to all, faithful and faithless, like sun and rain (Mt5-45, 46). But only a repentant faithful one can receive and benefit from it to the degree of his return-repentance. When we regain faith in Heavenly Father, whom we had rejected to fall in this devil’s domain, then repentance can come. Then only we open up towards Him to receive radiated love. So salvation is a free gift like sun and rain. But it is a hard work in our part to assimilate that salvation. Of course many will contradict it by twisting bible passages. But our reason is the final judge to say which meaning is true as bible passages were selected and compiled by human reason only. [/SIZE]
