Kingdom of the Self

Saved. Delivered.

What are we being saved from?

What are we being saved unto

a friend somewhere told me maybe it's being saved from the Kingdom of the Self unto the Kingdom of God.

I like that. Kingdom of self. Yes.

old school would say

I've saved from the penalty of sin
I'm being saved from the power of sin
and one day I'll be saved from the presence of sin

but ultimately, salvation is Deliverance from the world, the flesh (which from here out I'll always think of as the kingdom of the self) and the devil.

also saved unto good works...
