Bible Question: I am taking Suboxone to treat a opiate addiction I have- My question is, If I wanted to start going to church and wanted to be saved and except the lord as my savior, Do I need to quit at once, or should I wait until my treatment plan is up, or can I go while I am being treated? And still be saved? |
Bible Answer: Faith in Jesus Christ for salvation is based on what He did for us not what we do for Him. John 20:30-31 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. 1 John 5:10-13 He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. 11And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. Let the Lord clean up your life as He sees fit, all you are asked to do is have faith an trust in what He did for you not what we do for Him: the Father isn’t impressed with what we do for Him, He is only impressed with what Jesus did for you on the cross!!!!!!! Read the book of John through about three times and as you read ask the Lord to show you the truth. CDBJ |
