S A L V A T I O N = CONFESS AND BELIEVE in JESUS CHRIST.
To obtain
SALVATION we must CONFESS with our mouth the Lord Jesus, and BELIEVE in our
heart that God reaised him from the dead.
“For
God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not
his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him
might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that
believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of
the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).
When
Jesus was asked by his disciples, “What shall we do, that we might work the
works of God?” (John 6:28). “Jesus answered and said unto them, ‘This is the
work of God, that ye [BELIEVE ON HIM WHOM HE HATH SENT]’” (John 6:29).
“[WHOSOEVER
THEREFORE SHALL CONFESS ME BEFORE MEN, HIM WILL I CONFESS ALSO BEFORE MY FATHER
WHICH IS IN HEAVEN]. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also
deny before my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 10:31-33).
“[WHO
IS HE THAT OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF
GOD]? This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water
only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness,
because the Spirit is truth” (1 John 5:5–6).
“But
what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that
is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt [CONFESS WITH THY
MOUTH THE LORD JESUS], and shalt [BELIEVE IN THINE HEART THAT GOD HATH RAISED
HIM FROM THE DEAD, THOU SHALT BE SAVED]. For with [THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO
RIGHTEOUSNESS]; and with [THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION]” (Romans
10:8-10).
