SALVATION- Plain & Simple

1/1/2017

0 Comments

 
SALVATION – to Be SAVED  explained in simple terms.

Salvation is called many things depending on who is doing the talking!? I am going to try to give simplified, biblical answers to this word 'SALVATION'.

 Some examples of what others use is to say a person is “getting saved”, “walking the aisle”, “going forward”. Some even refer to the act of salvation as “getting baptized”, although that is a totally separate act that is to follow salvation. Usually when you hear these words, it means what we will call here, one’s salvation.

In a real-talk version, Salvation is giving our life; our mind, body & soul, over to God to guide for us because we realize we could never save ourselves from sin. We acknowledge & accept the GIFT of God sending Jesus to save us from our sin. And BECAUSE of this realization, and we want to be in relationship with Him and let Him lead our lives.

When we speak of Salvation, we are referring to the act of accepting Jesus Christ as Savior (to save them), and Lord (to lead their life).

Salvation is not only a ticket to Heaven after this life, even though many leave it right there.  Salvation can not be earned in any way. We can never do enough ‘good’ or be a morally perfect person.  We just can't.  ​ONLY because of Jesus and his blood sacrifice for us can Salvation happen. period.
​
  • Saved—From What? 
Sin & Consequences of Our Sin
(Romans 5:9),  (John 3:17-18),  (Romans 6:17-18),  (Romans 6:23)
​See DIG DEEPER for full verses!


  • Saved—By Whom?
JESUS. God sent His Son Jesus Christ to Save Us 
(Titus 3:4-6),  (Acts 4:10-12)  See DIG DEEPER for full verses!

  • Saved—How?
Jesus Left Heaven, Took on Flesh to Become Like Us, Lived Sinless Life, Died Horrible Crucifixion Death as Our One-Time Ultimate Sacrifice of Sins, THEN Resurrected 3 Days Later & Ascended to Heaven to Prove He is Alive & Has Power over even Death!
(Romans 4:24-25),  (Acts 16:30-31)  
See DIG DEEPER for full verses!

  • Saved—For What Purpose?
Eternal Life is a Wonderful Gift that Comes with Salvation, BUT if That was the only reason for Salvation, why would God leave us here?? Scriptures tell us over and over that God leaves us here to glorify Him in every aspect of our life here AND to allow Him to work through us to reach out and share the good news (the Gospel) of Salvation with everyone around us!  
(2 Timothy 1:8-9),  (Galatians 2:20),  (Ephesians 1:12)  
 
See DIG DEEPER for full verses!

  • Saved—Now What?
GROW in relationship with God & allow Him to show you what His purpose here is all about!
 (John 15:8-9),  (Ephesians 2:10),  (1 Peter 2:9),  (John 17:3)
