Indeed I agree with Edd and Bobot. Salvation is a grace and paid for by the greatest price. Thus it begins with the repentance of our sinfulness, then denouncing our old self and then accepting the grace of salvation God has given through Jesus Christ.
The full realization of the extent of His love makes us so grateful to God such that in everything that we do - obedience and good works, we do as a response to His love. This is where Lordship begins as we allow Jesus to reign in our hearts and minds, our decisions and priorities, opur plans, hopes, and dreams.
