The vast salvation of the Lord

Our Lord saves us not only from doom, but into Himself. His salvation will not be limited: it encompasses past, present and future tenses.

God has not appointed us to wrath but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Putting on = endusamenoi =

Day clothes for days work of battle. The breastplate (helmet) is an armed soldier.

To obtain = peripoilisin

Literally, unto the obtaining.

In three out of five instances in the N.T. the word clearly means acquiring or obtaining redemption.

"God didn't set us up for an angry rejection but for salvation by our Master, Jesus Christ. He died for us, a death that triggered life. Whether we're awake with the living or asleep with the dead, we're alive with Him." ~msg
Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?

Salvation is multi faceted too.  What a wonderful comfort,  satisfying rest, beautiful experience.

Yes indeed, encompassing past, present, and future tenses combined, to manifest so great salvation.
