✞ The Gospel: Plain and Simple
.
“But I fear, lest by any means, as
the serpent beguiled Eve through
his subtilty, so your minds should
be corrupted from the simplicity
that is in Christ.” - 2Cor.11:3
.
Ask someone today if they are
saved and you will most likely hear responses like these:
.
“I have accepted Jesus into my
heart.” Or “I have made him Lord of my life.” “I’ve been baptized.” “I
said the Sinners Prayer.”
.
Sounds all good and churchy don’t
it; but it is difficult to determine
whether or not a person actually
knows *the Gospel of our
Salvation* message* that saves us.
.
Let’s not muddy the simplicity of
salvation that is in Christ with
vague church sounding clichés that do not communicate *God's
instructions* for receiving
salvation. Those are just clichés that men have come up with and they are *NOT* even in the Bible!!!
.
Sin was passed upon all men by
one man Adam, and death is a
consequence of this sin (Rom 5:12).
.
Mankind has an eternal destiny of
condemnation and wrath because
of this sin (Rom 6:23). No matter
what good works one might do we are still found sinners in the sight of our Creator God.
.
It is for this reason of not being
able to create our own
righteousness and being born in a
sinful state that we need a savior
(Titus3:5).
.
Christ is our Savior, God manifested in the flesh, sinless, shed his blood, died in our place on a cross and rose from the tomb 3 days later.
.
It is through Jesus bloodshed,
burial, and resurrection on our
behalf that we are able to have
peace with God and forgiveness of
our sins (1 Cor 15:1-4) -[The Gospel of our Salvation]
