PLAN OF SALVATION
SALVATION IS A FACT
Salvation rests upon the absolute certainty of God’s Word – the Bible. We are saved by simply taking god at His Word. God offers sinners all the benefits of salvation on the condition that we believe in Him and accept Him as our Saviour.
WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED
“What must I do to be saved? And thy said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved and they house”. Acts 16:30-31
SALVATION IS A NEW LIFE
Salvation is not “turning a new leaf”. Salvation is a new nature. God’s nature living in us. Jesus Christ wants to live His life in and through us.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature, old things have passed away; and behold all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17
SALVATION IS A NEW LIFE
There is absolutely nothing we can do past or present that would be good enough for us to merit eternal life.
“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us”.
Titus 3:5
SALVATION IS GOD’S GIFT TO US
We cannot earn or meit it. God freely gives it to us for Christ sake. All we have to do is accept it and take it as a free gift from God.
“For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast”.
Ephesians 2:8-9
“For the wages of sin is death;, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord”.
Romans 6:23
Salvation is through the shed blood of Christ on Calvary.
“Neither is there salvation in any other (Than Jesus Christ): for there is none other name under heaven, given among men, whereby we must be saved”.
Acts 4:12
