520 _aInnovative excursion into New Testament teaching on the earthly life of faith What does it mean to `get saved`? Is conversion a gift of God's grace but the post-conversion Christian life in our own hands? Is the covenant relationship sustained by a sense of personal gratitude for God's past gift of conversion -- or is post-conversion faithfulness itself an ongoing gift from God? In this book Charles H. Talbert and Jason A. Whitlark, together with Andrew E. Arterbury, Clifford A. Barbarick, Scott J. Hafemann, and Michael W. Martin, address such questions about God's role in the Christian's life. Through careful, consistent exegesis of relevant New Testament texts, they show that `getting saved` involves both God's forgiveness and God's enablement to obey -- or `new covenant piety` -- from initial conversion to eschatological salvation. Read more about the book in a blog post by Whitlark on EerdWord.
