Salvation
Why must I be saved?(Romans 3:23)
The Bible tells us of how all of humanity became sinners in the fall of Adam and Eve in Genesis 3. Therefore, “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Because all of us are sinners, we will die both physically and spiritually, “for the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).
What must I do to be saved?(Acts 16:30-31)
Truthfully, you cannot do anything to save yourself. Adam and Eve tried to cover up their sin against God with fig leaves (Genesis 3:7), and people have been trying to cover up their sin ever since. There is only one way you can be saved from your sins and the penalty of sin. You must accept “the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23). In answer to a Philippian jailor’s question, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30), the Apostle Paul gave us the only way anyone can be saved: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household” (Acts 16:31)
When must I be saved?(2 Corinthians 6:2)
You are never promised another day, another second. Our lives are here and gone, as a vapor (James 4:14). So you should be saved right now! “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2).
What if I don’t want to be saved?(Revelation 20:15)
Lots of people procrastinate or worse totally reject salvation. The Bible is clear in saying that all who refuse or wait too long to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior will go to Hell. And yes, it is for real! “And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire” (Revelation 20:15).
What if I’m saved?(John 14:1-3)
If you will do the right thing and accept Christ as your Savior, then you will be saved. “For whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). And these words from Jesus Christ Himself are so, so sweet: “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also” (John 14:1-3).
