' Salvation '
& The ' TRUE ' Way To Eternal Life
Jesus answered , Verily , verily , I say unto thee . . .
Except a man be born of water
& of the Spirit ,
he CANNOT enter
into the kingdom of God
John 3 v 5
MAN'S PROBLEM :
' Death ' has been an inherited problem for all mankind , because ALL sin
As by one man sin entered into the world & death by sin ,
& so death passed upon all men , for that all have sinned - Romans 5 v 12
GOD'S SOLUTION :
God provided His Son as an Offering for a ' basis of forgiveness '
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 - John 3 v 16
- - - - - - - -
Jesus came bearing the ' exact nature ' common to all mankind
For what the law could not do , in that it was weak through the flesh , God sending his own
Son in the likeness of sinful flesh & for sin , condemned sin in the flesh - Romans 8 v 3
- - - - - - - -
Jesus strengthened by God - overcame temptation & sin
The spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him , the spirit of wisdom & understanding ,
The spirit of counsel & might , the spirit of knowledge & of the fear of the LORD
& shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD - Isaiah 11 v 2 - 3
- - - - - - - -
After leading a sinless life , Jesus gave Himself willingly to Death
1 ) To declare ' the righteousness ' of God
For all have sinned & come short
of the glory of God - Romans 3 v 23
2 ) To condemn ' human nature ' ( sin in the flesh )
God sending His own Son
in the likeness of sinful flesh ...
condemned sin in the flesh - Romans 8 v 3
3 ) To provide a ' mediator ' between God & Man
For there is one God
& one mediator between God & men ,
the ' man ' Christ Jesus - 1 Timothy 2 v 5
OUR RESPONSIBILITY :
As we cannot overcome sin completely ....
For I know that in me ( in my flesh ) dwelleth no good thing :
for to will is present with me ; but to perform that which is good , I find not.
For the good that I would , I do not :
but the evil which I would not , that I do - Romans 7 v 8
So we must believe Jesus did overcome sin
& that He was crucified & raised again
& accept His sacrifice
by identification " in Baptism "
3 STEPS TO SALVATION
1 ) BELIEF - is an ' essential ' pre-requisite
He that BELIEVETH & is baptised shall be saved
- Mark 16 v 16
But when they BELIEVED ... they were baptised
both men & women
- Acts 8 v 12
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ :
for it is the ' power of God ' unto salvation
to everyone THAT BELIEVETH ;
. . . to the Jew first & also to the Greek
- Rom 1v16
2 ) BAPTISM - an ' identification ' with Christ
Except a man be BORN OF WATER & the Spirit ,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God
- John 3 v 5
Peter said to them ... Repent & be BAPTISED every one of you
in the name of Jesus Christ , for the remission of sins
& ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit
- Acts 2 v 38
BAPTISM doth also now save us
( not the putting away of the filth of the flesh ,
but the answer of a good conscience toward God )
by the resurrection of Jesus Christ
- 1 Peter 3 v 21
3 ) OBEDIENCE - living a ' Christ-like ' life
Wherefore , my beloved , as ye have
always OBEYED , not as in my presence only ,
but now much more in my absence
work out your own salvation with fear & trembling
- Philip'ns 2 v 12
Who will render to ' every ' man ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS
To them who by patient continuance in well doing
seek for glory & honour & immortality, eternal life
- Romans 2 v 6
For if we sin WILLFULLY after that we have
received the knowledge of the truth
there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins
- Hebrews 10v26
Glory , honour & peace to ' every ' man that WORKETH GOOD
. . . to the Jew first & also to the Gentile
- Romans 2v10
