SALVATION

"How can I be saved?" deals with where we will spend eternity  after our lives in this world are over. There is no more important issue  than our eternal destiny. Thankfully, the Bible is abundantly clear on  how a person can be saved. The Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas,  “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30). Paul and Silas responded, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31).

How can I be saved? Why do I need to be saved?
We are all infected with sin (Romans 3:23). We are born with sin (Psalm 51:5), and we all personally choose to sin (Ecclesiastes 7:20; 1 John 1:8). Sin is what makes us unsaved. Sin is what separates us from God. Sin is what has us on the path to eternal destruction.

How can I be saved? Saved from what?
Because of our sin, we all deserve death (Romans 6:23).  While the physical consequence of sin is physical death, that is not  the only kind of death that results from sin. All sin is ultimately  committed against an eternal and infinite God (Psalm 51:4).  Because of that, the just penalty for our sin is also eternal and  infinite. What we need to be saved from is eternal destruction (Matthew 25:46; Revelation 20:15).

How can I be saved? How did God provide salvation?
Because the just penalty for sin is infinite and eternal, only God could  pay the penalty, because only He is infinite and eternal. But God, in  His divine nature, could not die. So God became a human being in the  person of Jesus Christ. God took on human flesh, lived among us, and  taught us. When the people rejected Him and His message, and sought to  kill Him, He willingly sacrificed Himself for us, allowing Himself to be  crucified (John 10:15).  Because Jesus Christ was human, He could die; and because Jesus Christ  was God, His death had an eternal and infinite value. Jesus’ death on  the cross was the perfect and complete payment for our sin (1 John 2:2).  He took the consequences we deserved. Jesus’ resurrection from the dead  demonstrated that His death was indeed the perfectly sufficient  sacrifice for sin.

How can I be saved? What do I need to do?
“Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31). God has already done all of the work. All you must do is receive, in faith, the salvation God offers (Ephesians 2:8-9). Fully trust in Jesus alone as the payment for your sins. Believe in Him, and you will not perish (John 3:16). God is offering you salvation as a gift. All you have to do is accept it. Jesus is the way of salvation (John 14:6).

THE ROMANS ROAD

I consider myself a ‘good person’… won’t that be enough?

ROMANS 3:23 NKJV – FOR ALL HAVE SINNED AND FALL SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD.

ROMANS 3:10 NKJV – AS IT IS WRITTEN: THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NO, NOT ONE;

ROMANS 5:12 NKJV – THEREFORE,  JUST AS THROUGH ONE MAN SIN ENTERED THE WORLD, AND DEATH THROUGH SIN,  AND THUS DEATH SPREAD TO ALL MEN, BECAUSE ALL SINNED.

       The creator of the universe is HOLY. God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 1 Jn 1:5 (KJV) He has set laws in place for His creation to obey. What are these laws? They begin with the 10 Commandments. While  you might consider yourself ‘good’ compared to most people, how do you  measure up against God’s law? Have you ever told the smallest lie? Then  you are a liar. “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at  just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.” James 2:10 (NIV) Disobedience to God is sin.     

Is sin really THAT big of a deal? If it is…what HOPE is there?

ROMANS 6:23 NKJV  – FOR THE WAGES OF SIN [IS] DEATH, BUT THE GIFT OF GOD [IS] ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.

Disobedience  to an infinite eternal God deserves an infinite eternal consequence.  God shows us His character and His laws in His creation, the world  around us. He has also written His laws in our hearts, on our  conscience. He has also given us His WORD the Bible. No good judge would  let the guilty go free, the criminal go unpunished. Neither can a holy  righteous God allow sinful man to go unpunished; but God LOVES man whom  He has made in His image and He has provided a way of escape by sending  His only son to die in our place.

After what I’ve done to grieve God...HOW could He willingly die in my place?

ROMANS 5:8 NKJV  – BUT GOD DEMONSTRATES HIS OWN LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT WHILE WE WERE STILL SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US.

For God so  loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever  believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Jn 3:16–NKJV  While He died on the cross, He was mocked, spit upon, and cursed. Yet  Jesus cried out, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do…” (Lk 23:34–KJV)  With such love, Jesus died in your place, knowing every evil act, word,  and thought you would commit. What powerful love! He loves you  unconditionally even to the point of death when you are at your worst!

HOW can I be saved?

ROMANS 10:9-10 NKJV  – THAT  IF YOU CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH THE LORD JESUS AND BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART  THAT GOD HAS RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, YOU WILL BE SAVED. FOR WITH THE  HEART ONE BELIEVES UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS  MADE UNTO SALVATION.

       You can never be saved by trying to be a good person, nor can you be saved through any amount of ‘good works’. Ephesians 2:8,9 (KJV) says  “For by grace have you been saved by faith. And that, not of  yourselves. It is the gift of God, not of works. Lest any man should  boast." You and I can be saved only by confessing our sins and placing  our faith in God’s Son, Jesus Christ who died and paid for our sins on  the cross. We must also surrender our life to His lordship, placing Him  in charge of every area of our life because we now belong to Him. Both  John the Baptist and Jesus himself began their preaching with the word,  ‘Repent’. (“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” –Matthew 4:17 NKJV)  To repent means ‘change one’s mind’ or to turn — to go in another  direction. How can we be led to repentance? The first step toward  repentance is true sorrow for what we’ve done wrong. “For godly sorrow  produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the  sorrow of the world produces death.” – 2 Corinthians 7:10 NKJV.  Worldly sorrow is more like the regret of a criminal who’s just been  caught whereas godly sorrow is the deep remorse or conviction that  produces a change in direction. Have you ever felt convicted after doing  something wrong? The Bible says that the Holy Spirit is the one that  convicts us of our sin. (John 16:7-8)         

Did God HEAR me? Did He accept me?

ROMANS 10:13 NKJV  – FOR WHOEVER CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.

God promises that “to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (Jn 1:12 NIV)  Yes, God does hear and accept ALL who come to put their faith in Him.  There is no need to fear death any longer because Jesus BROKE the power  of sin and death on the cross with His own shed blood. The price for  your sin has been paid in full and it is God’s promise to receive all  who come to Him by placing their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and  Savior. As a believer, you have a new life in Christ. Jesus did NOT  remain in the grave. He rose from the dead after three days. (Mark 16) “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” – 2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV

What do I do now?

ROMANS 10:17 NKJV  – SO THEN FAITH [COMES] BY HEARING, AND HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD.

Your  journey as a child of the King of kings has just begun! You must begin  by spending time daily in prayer and in God’s Word, the Bible. You must  also find fellowship with other believers in a church that teaches and  preaches the Bible. You should also now confess Jesus, your Savior  before men. Share about your new faith in Christ with your family,  coworkers and others whom God has placed on your daily path.
