“We should note also that for Paul ‘salvation in Christ’ included both ‘getting in’ and ‘staying in’; that is, Paul’s view of ‘getting saved’ had to do with faith in Christ that also includes ‘faithfulness’ in terms of a life being continually transformed into the likeness of God. Paul knows nothing of salvation that does not include both the indicative (salvation by grace through faith) and the imperative (faith lived out in one’s relationships and behavior)” (Gordon D. Fee, God’s Empowering Presence, 847).
