SCRABBLE is a challenging game. It involves the bringing together of letters to form words. Although at first glance this may seem like an easy game to play because there are only twenty-six letters in the English alphabet, these letters come together to form enough words to fill the Encyclopedia Britannica, the Library of Congress, and the World Wide Web!<\/p>\n
The game of Scrabble involves the ordering of items that originally have no implicit order. The words already exist, but the letters must be arranged a certain way to be made into words. The goal of this game is for players to set out letters so that they now make sense.<\/p>\n
Christians are to live their lives in a way that their actions come together to form the picture of salvation. Salvation is a gift and for the Christian already exists. The goal of living the Christian life is to arrange one\u2019s lifestyle so that it now looks like the existence of a person saved by grace.80<\/p>\n

Matt. 5:16; Rom. 12:2; Phil. 2:12<\/p>\n
IF YOU go to a doctor, he diagnoses your ailment and prescribes a treatment. He gives you a prescription for medication. He gives you everything you need to feel better, but you\u2019ve got to work it out. In other words, you\u2019ve got to go to the pharmacist, you\u2019ve got to get the prescription filled, and, most importantly, you\u2019ve got to take the medicine in order for it to benefit you. See, God knows how to measure whether we value His salvation because if you do, you work it out. If you value it, you work it out. If you don\u2019t value it, then you don\u2019t work it out. You ignore it, you bypass it, or you marginalize it, but what you don\u2019t do is work it out.81<\/p>\n
