Philippians 2:12-13

Work out; by obeying God.

With fear and trembling; lest you should live in sin and fall of eternal life. Worketh in you; influencing you by his Spirit to do what is pleasing to him. In order to be saved, men must work out their own salvation by faith, love, and obedience, as God has appointed; and the fact that whenever they are inclined to do it, he works in them, and thus influences them to work out their salvation, gives them the greatest encouragement, without delay, to engage in this work.
