"What" is Salvation?
It is...
Redeemed- made a Saint by Christ's sacrifice.
Justified- given the Righteousness of Christ in God's view.
Sanctification- being made Holy by the Lordship of Christ

Jesus Christ.
God is "Love". But He is also "Just". Jesus was born for one purpose. So that God could reconcile those two attributes with "Mercy". The Kingdom of God has upheld Justice through the sacrifice Jesus provided. Peace is what the Angels proclaimed to the Shepards the night Jesus was born. Reconciliation is what Jesus accomplished when he died on the cross.

The truth separated from God becomes deception
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge
The truth sets you free if you believe it.
In all your getting get understanding Proverbs 4:7
Don't trust in your own understanding
The truth separated from God becomes deception
Proverbs 29:18 CEV Without guidance from God law and order disappear, but God blesses everyone who obeys his Law.

The Mind of Christ through the Holy Spirit
The Mind of Christ?
Perspective, insight, understanding, knowledge, wisdom, and ability, all through the Guidance of the Holy Spirit.
The Present Moment?: I call it the Here and Now.
The present moment is "where" and "when" we exist and have our being. Our understanding resides with our thoughts in the present moment. Our understanding is informed by our “perspective", which is derived from a combination of our five senses, our memory of the past that validates the present moment, and our ability to reason, which anticipates the future. Because of this, each individual has a “unique” and limited perspective.
Our perspective is limited by the laws of physics and the nature of our inertial frame, which is our physical body. This is why the truth of Proverbs chapter 3 verses 5 and 6 is so important to understand. And why being Spirit-led is an essential aspect of every believer’s walk.
If we are born again, we are conscious of the Holy Spirit’s presence. According to His will, the Holy Spirit “informs” our perspective and therefore increases our understanding so, if we trust and obey, we can participate in what He is doing in the present moment (Revealing the Kingdom).
The present moment, the here and now, is the only place where a child of God is led by the Spirit of God. It's where the Holy Spirit reminds us of His leading in the past: John 14:26. It is where He speaks prophetically to us about the future. John 16:13
The present moment is the only place where we can exercise Biblical Faith as we trust and obey the Holy Spirit's leading in the here and now!
Jesus said, "I assure you: The Son is not able to do anything on His own, but only what He sees (present-tense), the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does these things in the same way. Jn 5:19
Jesus also said, “The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Jn 14:10

I Corinthians 12:4-7. “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines.”
Romans 12: 6-8. “We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.”
1 Peter 4:10-11. “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.”

The ability to anticipate.
The problem is we think we can.verb: anticipate; 3rd person present: anticipates; past tense: anticipated; past participle: anticipated; gerund or present participle: anticipating
1. regard as probable; expect or predict. "she anticipated scorn on her return to the theater"
Similar: expect, foresee, predict, think likely, forecast, prophesy
Much of what we do is with an expectation of an anticipated response. Rarely are we satisfied with the response? Why? Maybe our expectation is flawed... I hear."be humble, let Me (GOD) add to your perspective."
