– God will not save anyone who is trying to be saved, He will only save those who are trusting to be saved.
– He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living.. (Mark 12:27)
– You don’t have to get better to be saved, you get saved to get better
– You don’t go to Hell because you won’t quit your sinning!
– Salvation is NOT found in a religion or good works, but in a Person… JESUS CHRIST!
– You Are Not Saved By Repenting, You Are Saved By Your Faith In Jesus Christ (Pastor Danny Castle).
– Unbelief is the only sin which can keep you out of Heaven
– If we haven’t been to the foot of the cross, we haven’t been born again. That is the message Jesus is trying to teach us.
– Genesis to revelation, Jesus is the subject
– Salvation is of God, not man. Our part is simply to believe, but it is God who changes our heart. One who believes in Christ has repented.
– Repentance is that thing when you come before God and see yourself as you are, and see Him as he is, and say with Isaiah “Woe is me, for I am unclean!” Repentance is simply a change of mind, where you admit that you are a woeful sinner totally incapable of saving yourself. Thus, you believe the Gospel (Good News) of the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved.
– Repentance is to change your mind about how you want to get to Heaven to what God says you’ve got to do to get to Heaven.
– Eternal life is freely given (Romans 5:15), freely offered (Romans 10:13), and freely received (Revelation 22:15).
– You’re saved by BELIEVING, not by praying, not by living the christian lifestyle
– John 20:31, “But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” You don’t turn from your sins to trust Jesus, you turn to Jesus to receive the gift of forgiveness of your sins.
– Salvation is of the Heart
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:10) [To agree with God Im a sinner and cannot save myself and that Jesus died for my sins.] call out by faith in your heart and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ
– Before an individual can be saved, he must first learn that he cannot save himself.
– Christianity is God trying to reach man by the sacrifice of His Son on the cross.Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ’s best put to your account through receiving Him by faith
– Faith is not looking at Jesus; it’s looking unto Jesus, which is another way of saying depending on Jesus
– The Gospel is that Jesus Christ DIED on the cross for our sins, was BURIED, and bodily RESURRECTED three days later (1st Corinthians 15:1-4)
– God is NOT impressed with our self-righteousness at all. The reason is because there’s nothing we can do to atone for our own sins. Nothing! That’s why we need a Savior.
– It’s not what you’re doing that gets you to Heaven, it’s where you’re looking. Look to Jesus!
– Trust Christ, and you shall be SAVED
– Salvation is about us admitting that we are guilty, hell-deserving, sinners; and therefore, we need a Savior to redeem us.
– You Cannot go to heaven by church membership or good works, but only through the blood of Jesus, so please do not go to hell.
“Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)
– God’s simple plan of salvation is: You are a sinner. Therefore, unless you believe on Jesus Who died in your place, you will spend eternity in Hell. If you believe on Him as your crucified, buried, and risen Savior, you receive forgiveness for all of your sins and His gift of eternal salvation by faith. God’s righteousness demands that sin be paid for, either;
- We pay for our sin ourselves by dying and going to Hell, or
- We can accept God’s substitutionary payment for sin, Jesus Christ as saviour and receive the free gift of eternal life and go to Heaven when we die.
– if you are willing to stop trying to get to heaven your way and completely trust Jesus, then you can be saved right now
