God's
plan of salvation is open to all who:
1. Hear the Gospel:
Romans. 10:17 " So belief cometh of hearing, and hearing
by the word of Christ.,"
John 6:44-45 "No man can come to me, except the Father
that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day. It is written
in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Everyone that hath heard
from the Father, and hath learned, cometh unto me."
2. Believe:
Hebrews 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to
be well-pleasing unto him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he
is, and that he is a rewarder of them that seek after him"
Mark 16:16 "He that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned."
John 8:24 " I said therefore unto you, that ye shall
die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am he, ye shall die in your
sins."
Acts 8:36-37 "And as they went on the way, they came
unto a certain water; and the eunuch saith, Behold, here is water; what doth
hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thy
heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ
is the Son of God."
3. Repent:
Acts 17:30-31 "The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commandeth men that they should all everywhere repent: 31 inasmuch as he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead."
Acts 2:38 "And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
4.Confess Jesus:
Matthew 10:32-33 "Every one therefore who shall confess
me before men, him
will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. 33 But whosoever shall
deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven.
"
Acts 8:37 "And Philip said, If thou believest with all
thy heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ
is the Son of God."
Romans 10:9-10 "because if thou shalt confess with thy
mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God 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."
5. Are baptized for the remission of sins:
Acts 2:38 "And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and
be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission
of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
Mark 16:16 "He that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned."
John 3:3-5 "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born anew, he cannot see the kingdom
of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old?
can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God!"
Galatians 3:27 "For as many of you as were baptized
into Christ did put on Christ".
1 Peter 3:20-21 "that aforetime were disobedient, when
the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing,
wherein few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water: 21 which also
after a true likeness doth now save you, even baptism, not the putting away
of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation of a good conscience toward
God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ;"
Acts 22:16 "And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be
baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on his name."
6. Stay Faithful:
John 14:15 "If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments."
James 2:17-20 "Even so faith, if it have not works,
is dead in itself. 18 Yea, a man will say, Thou hast faith, and I have works:
show me thy faith apart from thy works, and I by my works will show thee my
faith. 19 Thou believest that God is one; thou doest well: the demons also
believe, and shudder. 20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith apart
from works is barren?"
Phillipians. 2:12 "So then, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; Rev. 2:7 "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, to him will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.
