He Builds Upon It

1 Corinthians 3:10 (ESV)

According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it.

Jesus has provided the foundation for our salvation by the sacrifice of His flesh to cleanse us from our sin. This is not the end, but the beginning of our life in Him. We are given this platform to work out this gift of salvation. Like the parable of the talents, we are each given life that we might stand before Him when He returns to give a good account of what we have done with our lives that we might hear Him say, “Well done my good and faithful servant.”

It is then we enter His Sabbath rest.
