Bible Answer: Dear WalkforChrist; Here is an explanation of salvation from a couple of websites with cross references. I would encourage you to read the cross references in the bible. Salvation is by Grace through faith alone. This is a description of salvation: When an unregenerate person exercises that faith in Christ which is illustrated and described as such in the New Testament, he/she passes immediately out of spiritual death into spiritual life, and from the old creation into the new; being justified from all things, accepted before the Father according as Christ His Son is accepted, loved as Christ is loved, having his/her place and portion as linked to Him and one with Him forever. Though the saved one may have occasion to grow in the realization of his/her blessings and to know a fuller measure of divine power through the yielding of his/her life more fully to God, he/she is, as soon as he/she is saved, in possession of every spiritual blessing and absolutely complete in Christ, and is therefore in no way required by God to seek a so-called “second blessing,” or a “second work of grace” (John 5:24; 17:23; Acts 13:39; Rom. 5:1; 1 Cor. 3:21–23; Eph. 1:3; Col. 2:10; 1 John 4:17; 5:11–12). – http://www.dts.edu/about/doctrinalstatement/ A. The salvation of man is wholly a work of God's free grace and is not the result, in whole or in part, of human works or goodness or of religious ceremony. Salvation is received only through personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, as a man will repent and believe the gospel. God imputes His righteousness to those who put their faith in Christ alone for their salvation, and thereby justifies them in His sight (John 1:11, 12;14:6; Mark 1:15; Eph. 2:8, 9; Titus 3:5-7; Rom 3:20-28; 4:16-25; Gal. 2:16; 3:24). B. It is the privilege of all who are born again of the Spirit to be assured of their salvation from the very moment in which they trust Christ as their Savior. This assurance is not based upon any kind of human merit, but is produced by the witness of the Holy Spirit, who confirms in the believer the testimony of God in His written Word (John 1:11, 12; 3:14-18, 36; 14:16; 5:24; Rom 8:16-18; Titus 3:5-7; Heb. 13:5, 6; 1 John 5:11-13; Rev. 6:9-11). http://www.woodlandpark.org/about/beliefs.asp Sincerely, Val |
