Bible Question:
Friends and colleagues, What is salvation? There are several aspects of salvation, what are they? I can name a few: Quickening of the Holy Spirit Repentance Justification Redemption Sanctification Conversion Regeneration Renewal Revival Restoration Eternal Judgment Resurrection I think there are more. (some may say less! :-)) How we line these things up, what we add, what we delete are how we view our relationship with God, and seem to be the root of our differences. Some may want to 'forget our differences and focus on our similarities,' but I think there is unity in fellowship and sharing of knowledge, not in ignorance or cognitive dissonance. :-) Blessings in Christ Jesus, charis |
Bible Answer: Charis,Salvation is first in Romans 10. Notice verse 4, For Christ is end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth. Rom.10:9,10, 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. But also 11, it says "whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. But in verse 16, Isaiah says "who hath believed our report". verse 17, So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. In Acts16:30,31 it says "And brought them out and said" Sirs what must I do to be saved." verse 30, And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Eph 2:5 "Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) Luke 1:74-80 That he would grant us, that we being delivered out of the hand of the enemy might serve him without fear. 75) In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life. 76) And thou child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways; 77)To give knowledge of salvation unto His people by the remission of their sins, 78)Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us, 79) To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace." 80) And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel. I truly believe that you can confess with mouth, but if you don't know what you are confessing then how can you be saved. Saved from what? Rom.10:17 explains that faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Yes, confession without knowledge is the first step, but it's up to the teachers to teach the true meaning of salvation. We as teachers are responsible to teach his word so then all know his true salvation from sin and that the enemy no longer hath dominion over them, and God's love and tender mercy through grace giving them power and confidence to endure to the end. Trusting in Jesus every day and him dying on the cross. Is it instantaneous as in confession and not knowing what you're confessing to. It's gradual, and in getting to know why you are saved and from what. So when at the judgement, Jesus doesn't say, depart from me, I never knew you. Serenetime |
