And your further reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls.

This salvation was something the prophets did not fully understand. Though they wrote about it, they had many questions as to what it all could mean.

Now that you realize how kind the Lord has been to you, put away all evil, deception, envy, and fraud. Long to grow up into the fullness of your salvation; cry for this as a baby cries for his milk.
