Jefferson Bethke is not saying how to receive salvation but talking after the fact. In order to receive it, we must put our trust 'in' Jesus with our change of mind and the Holy Spirit will then lead us. Because it is not enough to believe 'about' Jesus.
To be saved you have to declare that Jesus is your Lord and Savior and believe that just as He was raised from the dead, you will be too. (Romans 10:9) This body is sinful (Romans 6:6) and cannot enter the kingdom of heaven (Mathew 18:3) so we need a new spirit (Holy Spirit is given to us when we accept Jesus as a guarantee that when we get to Heaven, we will receive a new one 2 Corinthians 5:18) to enter Heaven. Romans 6 speaks about us being slaves to sin in this world. How are we going to take our sinful nature with us into the kingdom of heaven? We can't. He explicitly says that in Romans 6:1. So then we must choose (while we are still in our earthly body) to obey Christ so that when He returns, we can live with Him for eternity
Salvation is believing. Nothing else. But while we live on this earth we live godly lives so that we can build our rewards in heaven.
You are so right, so often when things are going wrong we think God has abandon us and we need to do something ourselves apart from him, but if we can just wait until his timing he will see us through, he is always faithful!
Does Alyssa have an email address she gives out for personal questions??
Well said! God Bless this guy!
Wrong!! Salvation is realizing you're a sinner condemned to hell, and believing that Jesus, who is God in the flesh, died for your sins, was buried, and rose again to give you everlasting life. You need to accept the free gift of eternal life by believing and trusting Jesus alone to save you. Ephesians 2:8-9. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.
AMEN
How do you define faith?
God bless you.
I agree that if you’re saved your works will show it. You’ll know them by their fruits. Not saved by your works but your works shows that you’re a follower of Christ
Wrong!!! Not always the case!
That scripture is talking about how to recognize FALSE TEACHERS. Read it in context.
No hun, read Paul's letters and James, they say faith will sow works.
••John 3: 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVETH in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (KJV) ••1 John 5: 10He that BELIEVETH on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 13These things have I written unto you that BELIEVE on the name of the Son of God; that YE MAY KNOW that ye HAVE eternal life, and that ye may BELIEVE on the name of the Son of God. (KJV) ••Ephesians 1: 3In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that YE BELIEVED, ye were SEALED with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the EARNEST of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. (KJV) ••2 Corinthians 1: 21Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; 22Who hath also SEALED us, and given the EARNEST of the Spirit in our hearts. (KJV) ••Earnest is a term used for the down payment that you put towards a big purchase to show that you are serious about making that purchase. ••The Holy Spirit is our earnest payment securing our salvation. ••If you choose to believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God and accept his crucifixion sacrifice to remove the sins from your record, then you ARE saved (born again) and you HAVE eternal life.•
Ye are saved by grace through FAITH. That's it.
James 2: 14-20 New King James Version (NKJV)
Faith Without Works Is Dead
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, *if it does not have works, is dead.*
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your[a] works, and I will show you my faith by my[b] works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?[c]
James 2 is telling us with faith that he wants us to do work. ''Faith without works'' tell us there is such a thing that exists. Someone can have faith and not have any works. That person is still saved.. but God wants us to do a lot of good works like soulwinning, preaching, helping the poor, spreading the truth etc. KJV is the truth
There is a difference between dead faith and no faith. Dead faith is still faith.
If we had to live our life through Christ then that means we have to do good works = works salvation.
Works have nothing to do with salvation.
*Romans 4: 5 KJV*
[5] But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
God bless
romans 4:5 @@Aloofgoblinoid
WOLF!
The light bulb was distracting me.
Felt like there should have been some background music here.
That makes it obvious..
Only through the blood of Christ.
Hello how're you doing hope you're safe due to the covid 19 pandemic?
must easier. he said anyone who believes will have everlasting life Jeff if a false teacher.
How do you define faith, because even Hitler and Goebbels believed in God and in Jesus. So following your logic I could meet them in heaven.
@@loeweal5641
Hebrews 11:1 faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.
Hitler and people like him didnt have faith.
Romans 10:9-10,13 KJV
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
They never professed Jesus as Lord or even believed in their heart.
@@loeweal5641
One must believe and understand salvation is eternal life one cannot lose their salvation once they are saved. Mainstream christianity teaches the opposite which makes them unsaved
Oh my God jeff haha I had never thought of that fish and bread example, that ¨ok everyone now everyone bow down raise your hand...¨ great point men, I still think he deserves glory and thats why I do it
This is false works salvation
All someone has to do is look through these comments and they'll know one of the biggest problems with "Christians" of this world. Everybody thinks the way THEY believe and the way THEY (more likely their pastor) interpret the scriptures is the ONLY way to God.
For any who say that Believing in Jesus is enough, read James 2: 14-26, if acts are not a requirement along with faith in Jesus, why does James, Jesus' brother, say:
James 2:14-20 New King James Version (NKJV)
Faith Without Works Is Dead
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your[a] works, and I will show you my faith by my[b] works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?
And Paul in his first letter to the Chorinthians:
1 Chorinthians 13: 2 New King James Version (NKJV)
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, *and though I have all faith*, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, *I am nothing.*
(emphasis added)
I'll leave you with this thought:
Love is an act, and the greatest act which we hope is never required, is the ACT of submitting our lives, even to death, for the sake of the Gospel.
Aaron Proctor good works will not get us into heaven, but rather we will want to do good works because we have the Holy Spirit.
Holly Young I was pointing out that faith alone is not enough, while it will give the gift of salvation, it is also our works through TOTAL SUBMISSION to God that God brings us ever more close to Him.

If you are relying on works to get you to heaven, this is what will happen to you:
Matthew 7:21-23 KJV
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Romans 10:3 KJV
For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
However that person must understand the real will of God:
John 6:40 KJV
And this is the will of him that sent me, that everyone which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
1 John 2:17 KJV
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
@celticbaptist9234 huh, this just came up on my feed, 6 years later apparently 😅, thanks
Soooooo Awesome! !!!!!
Romans 10:9,10....
The Baptists have it the easiest- believe on the lord. That's it.
AMEN Jesus said it is easy to be saved! He did all the hard work!
The thing is how do you define faith? That's the biggest problem.
I’m non denominational.
JESUS is very specific on what we must do to be saved - JESUS' plan of salvation starts with ACTS 2:38 - repentance, baptism in JESUS name, receiving the HOLY GHOST - with JESUS' salvation you can be delivered, changed, saved - without it you're lost and going to hell.
Totally agree. The bible says to be born again. Filled with the Holy Spirit, baptized in Jesus name, repentance, and living a holy life. This guy is not telling the truth.
Smiles ... Jesus offers eternal life and in that life there is forgiveness, holiness, sanctification, righteousness, justification, etc. Jesus, throughout the Gospel of John, directed men to believe in Him for salvation. Once you do, you're baptized with a baptism that is far greater than water (read John the Baptizers words). Once you believe you're born again of the Spirit. Now when you say delivered that has context that is religious as well as Spiritual. Delivered from sin in the Spirit means that sin/ death have no more authority or power over you. In religious circles it deals with activity (ie I used to smoke but since I am saved, I don't smoke anymore). Read John 3:36. Those who believe have eternal life and those who don't remain in their state of being lost, which results in Hell.
You can't get Acts right if you don't the Gospels. Yes they may have been written at least 40 years after the Cross but that's the same with Acts. If you want an early perspective on the Gospel read the letters of Paul.
Paul Said he sent people out to preach not baptize.
