Subject: Do Jesus and Paul agree on salv by faith |
Bible Note: "The Condition [for salvation]. Salvation is conditioned solely on faith in Jesus Christ. Nearly 200 times faith, or belief, is stated as the single condition in the N.T. (John 1:12; Acts 16:31). That faith must be placed in Christ as one's substitute for and Saviour from sin" (p. 1882, Ryrie Study Bible, Moody Press, 1976, 1978). reilly1041: Welcome to the forum. I appreciate that you are trying to get at the truth of this quesion to clear up your confusion. I encourage you to be a Berean. NASB Acts 17:11 Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so. AMPLIFIED...searching and examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so. No matter who is preaching or teaching, whether it be me, others on this forum, a preacher in your church or on TV or the Internet, YOU examine the Scriptures daily to see if the things you hear are so.
