Salvation Verse no. 4. slightly surprising verse!
The conclusion of all those Bible verses about the salvation we saw:
“The only full and true salvation
takes place
when the one who is saved makes an effort for it to appear.
This is the root of justice in human service to the Divine.”
[Rabbi A.Y. Kook, Orot Hakodesh, Chapter 3, 47].

When a gift is received without work or any effort
The recipient of the gift is humiliated!
It is better to receive our gifts in return for our own positive actions.
Similarly, our arrival in the World to Come, living forever close to God,
Can never be as a free gift from God.
We must earn the priviliege through our positive deeds.
And this is the secret of ‘Worshipping God’
In our daily behavior.
God demand from us because he is GOOD! [pic. 1]
And the result will be as written:
“Behold… God shall come… [and] His reward is with Him…
His recompense [for their deeds, their actions,
which He [God] is obliged to give] is before Him.”
[Isaiah 40:10]
