Romans 1:16 - King James Version 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. (The Letter of Paul to the Romans) Romans 5:18 - King James Version 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. (offence of one - Adam's one trespass, one sin, led to the condemnation of all men - the righteousness act of one was Jesus' death on the cross to pay for human sin) We are all sinners and fall short in God his glory - how to be saved - this is the gospel of salvation - 1 Corinthians chapter 15 verses 1-4 by trusting and believing the gospel of salvation you are saved and sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise till the day of redemption and nothing can pluck you out of the Father his hand - (In whom we have redemption through his blood , even the forgiveness of sins: (Colossians 1:14 - King James Version) - eternal security is a free gift - it's a promise and God Almighty cannot lie!!! Have a blessed day! This is the gospel of salvation - 1 Corinthians chapter 15 verses 1-4 Witnesses of Christ's resurrection. 1) Moreover,brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2) ''By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3) For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4) And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. Ephesians 2:8-9 - King James Version 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. IT IS FINISHED... Paid in Full !!! But, You Must BELIEVE IT - 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV. 2 Timothy 2:15 - King James Version 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Romans 2:16 - King James Version 16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel. (Paul's Gospel - 1 Corinthians chapter 15 verses 1-4). Galatians 1:8-9 - King James Version 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. KJV - Bible verses about Jesus is God John 1:1 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 - And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 10:30 - I and my Father are one. Isaiah 9:6 - For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. John 20:28 - And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. John 8:58 - Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Religion is always dealing with you and what you're doing and what you're not doing, anytime you're sitting around thinking what should I be doing you're under religion, the grace of God is dealing what Christ did. Under religion man always says look what I'm doing for you God and under grace Christ says look what I did for you man. Under religion man says look how I went to church and under the grace of God Jesus said look how I went to Calvary. Under religion man says look at how I was raised in my denomination and under grace Christ says look how I was raised from the dead. Under religion man says look at how I gave my money and under grace Jesus says look at how I gave my life. Under religion man says look God at how I confessed my sins and under grace Jesus says look man how I took away your sins. Under religion man says look God at how I stood up against sin and under the grace of God Jesus says look man at how I died for your sins. Under religion man says look God at how I judged the lost world and under grace Jesus says look man at how I saved the lost world. Under religion man says look God at how I got up and marched against these evildoers and under grace Jesus says look man how I suffered and died for evildoers. Under religion man says look God at how I bow down to you and under grace Jesus says look man and how I became one of you. Under religion man says look God at how I healed the sick and under grace Jesus says look man how I raised the dead. Under religion man says look God at how I spoke in tongues and under grace Jesus says look man at how I spoke in life. Under religion man says look God at how successful my life was and under grace Jesus says looked me at how successful my death was. Religions my friends is always man trying to reach up to God with self effort to be accepted by God. Through classic Christianity was God reaching down to man through Jesus with love and acceptance and that's why Paul said we preach Christ and Christ crucified a stumbling block to the Jews foolishness to the Gentiles but to those whom God has called both Jews and Gentile Christ the power of God and wisdom. Source ''Truth Time Radio''. Like many "Christians" today, Satan believes Jesus died on the cross, but not for HIS sins. He believes Jesus has risen, but not for HIS eternal life. Satan believes the event of the cross but never put his trust in Christ's finished work for salvation. Salvation is not: Believing there is a God. (Satan believes that) Salvation is not: Believing Christ was the Messiah. (Satan believes that) Salvation is not even... Believing Christ died, was buried and rose the third day. (Satan believes that also) Salvation is: Believing Christ died for YOUR EVERY SIN and trusting that He rose to give you eternal life IN HIM! Something Satan and most Christians want no part of because of their PRIDE! If denominationalists truly believed Christ forgave their sins, they wouldn't spend so much time trying to GET them forgiven. One tells you to pray for forgiveness. One tells you to confess for forgiveness. One tells you to believe for forgiveness. One tells you to repent for forgiveness. One tells you to be baptized for forgiveness. And keep in mind, all of these folk with a straight face will tell you Christ DIED for your sins. Welcome to Nutsville!!! I think Dorothy got lost on the yellow brick road. Today I unapologetically proclaim that there is only one way to be saved, and it has nothing to do with getting your sins forgiven. Salvations through FAITH. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Without faith it is impossible to please God. Salvation comes to those who are ready to give up on THEIR performance and rest their faith in JESUS' performance. The path to salvation is narrow. SO narrow that nothing you do will fit. Satan will never be saved for the same reason he was kicked out of heaven. P-R-I-D-E. (Isaiah 14:12-14) Read carefully and count how many times he says "I". How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Satan is obviously a Narcissist! Like a vain person in front of the mirror, five times in only three verses he boasts of himself. Pride keeps Satan from being saved as it does most of the world. They have fallen victim to SELFIANITY and are incapable of letting go and letting God. Incapable of taking their filthy hands off their salvation and allowing God to save them by HIS finished work! If you say --- "I said a prayer for forgiveness." "I confessed for forgiveness." "I believed for forgiveness." "I repented for forgiveness." "I was baptized for forgiveness." Then sadly you have fallen for the five I's just like Satan. Salvation is not getting your sins forgiven, it's believing they already ARE! To be saved, you must first get "I" out of the way. You only get two educations, the one you're given and the one you give yourself!
