Subject: jcsav, Why isn't believing being saved? |
Bible Note: Hello jcsav, Are you trying to tell us that God can't save someone without someone preaching to the individual? Does that mean that since I believed in Jesus, by reading the Bible on my own, with only the Holy Spirit revealing truth to me that I’m not actually saved? John 20:30-31 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. Matthew 16:16-17 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. Have a nice day, CDBJ |
