Salvationfor all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God Romans 6:23 for the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God". 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come. 1 Timothy 1:16 but I received mercy for this reason, that in my, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience for an example to those who were to believe in Him for eternal life. The Truth of Scripture states that all have sinned but Jesus has come to atone for those sins by the blood He shed on Calvary. No works shall gain entrance to the Kingdom of God but only through Faith. Through this faith in Christ Jesus we will become new creatures and as such, new creatures will show forth the fruits in our lives of this changed nature. Not only did God open up an entrance for us into the Kingdom of God but also He opened, through the our lives, an entrance for God to the world. He did not just save us for heaven but for us to be the lights of the world while we are here. Matthew 7:16 You can detect them by the way they act, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit. John 8:12 Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life." We believe in "The Eternal Security of the Believer" which translated means that as a believer and a follower of Christ, you are secure in your heavenly destination. For those who said a prayer, got baptized, go to church and pay their tithes, we find this is in the category of works and not a changed life. The security is in making Jesus Lord, Master, King, Lover and Friend of our lives. Can You Lose Your Salvation?Hebrews 6:4 For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted of the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God, and put Him to open shame. You answer the Question!Remember always, God did not just open the door for you to enter Heaven but to enter the Kingdom of God. In this life time there are gifts and blessings, anointing, authority, and a purpose for all those who believe. It is time for us to walk inwhat was given by Jesus Christ! |
