SALVATION

[alfredinho]

Salvation means deliverance from sins and the consequences of sin. Put differently, salvation means to be converted, changed, transformed, regenerated from being a sinnner to a child of God. It could also mean be justified or declared righteous; not by man's merit but an act of free grace. There are steps to salvation which are:

1. Acknowledge - You must see yourself in the light of God's word that you are a sinner (Rom 3:23, Lk 18:13).
2. Repent - You must see the awefulness of sin, then repent of it (Luke 13:3, Acts 3:19).
3. Confess - Confess your sin, not unto man but unto God (1 John 1:9, Rom 10:10).
4. Forsake - Sorrow for sin is not enough in itself, we must do away with it once and for all (Isa. 55:7).
5. Believe - Believe in the finished work of Christ on the cross for your sins (Jn 3:16, Rom 10:9).
6. Accept - Christ must be accepted personally unto your heart by faith, if the experiance of the new birth is to be yours (John 1:11-12).

Thank you for sharing the good news. I pray that God will use this post to bring people into His Kingdom. I like how you put the steps together, as people sometimes hear they must be saved or follow Jesus but don't know how.

Romans 10:13-15 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”[f]
14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”[g]
