Saved vs striving to be saved??
This is an off shoot from the standards thread.
Usually when an apostolic is asked if they are saved the answer a lot of times is "I am striving to be saved". I think this comes from not knowing the gospel and what really happened at the cross and what Christ has done for us.
Many times Paul uses word "saved" in regards to the saints.
What think ye? are you saved or striving to get saved?
