^{Ps 40 11}Do not withhold your mercy from me, O LORD ;
may your love and your truth always protect me.
  ¹²For troubles without number surround me;
my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see.
They are more than the hairs of my head,
and my heart fails within me.

  ¹³Be pleased, O LORD , to save me;
O LORD , come quickly to help me.
  ¹⁴May all who seek to take my life
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.
  ¹⁵May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!"
be appalled at their own shame.
  ¹⁶But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation always say,
"The LORD be exalted!"

If salvation has already been made complete even tho we have not been made perfect then what is the greatest opposition to our experiencing it in this life?  The Psalmist teaches that salvation is more than God saving His elect and placing them in the world to face the potential of being destroyed. Is salvation only described in the bible as God focusing on sanctifying His elect? Does God have one purpose for the wicked and another purpose for His people? Does God apply His law according to the personality of all the people and things that He created? Is there any point where salvation can be described out side of the context of the working of God in unifying all things?If Gods law were an instrument to divide His creation then He would be subject to change His purpose for the ends that He created all things. Gods law would be an instrument of disorder. So the purpose of salvation is Gods work to reorder all things according to His original ends in creating all things.

Gods judgement in the work of His creation in unifying all things is according to His perfect justice.The ends for which God created all things is satisfied in His justice. This is why the Psalmist teaches that the opposition to our salvation is greater than our sin. The reception of salvation is more than us living in the potential for God to justify Himself in the ends for which He saved us. But our salvation is the justification of God in reordering all things in perfect unity for the ends of working for our good. Salvation is predetermined in the counsel of God in the perfect unity of its purposes and ends. We receive what has already been made complete.

This is why the Psalmist teaches that salvation is the perfect work of God in speaking all things into creation. Salvation is ruled by the governor who orders all things according to His law, covenants, curses, statutes, promises and decrees. So we must understand that salvation is not primarily a relationship to our personal opposition. It is not primarily related to our struggle with sin. You see we have been gifted with a work of Gods perfect reunification of the entire created order. This is why salvation is the work of God in recreating the world through His word. We are not just Gods children who are loved by a Father but we are Gods handiwork who have been appointed as kings and priest over His recreation.

The entire work of God must meet His legal obligation. We must understand that Gods universal judgements must be satisfied in order for us to obtain our final salvation. This is why Gods law is not pragmatic. Gods law controls all things by Gods allowance and prevention. The law is more than a standard. It is an instrument of containing Gods perfect unity in the recreation of all things. The greatest enemy to the perfect kingdom of God is corruption and destruction.Gods law is the only successful weapon in destroying destruction. His law is the only real standard of allowing His people to flourish in the unity of His blessing. God has restored His elect who pronounce His law, covenants , curses etc as the co regents in ruling over His creation. Our sole purpose is reestablishing Gods kingdom in pronouncing cursing and blessing in order to overcome all opposition. Our salvation goes beyond our personal relationships to restoring the unity of all things.
