The Gospel: Plain And Simple by marcopollo(m): 6:41am On Jan 24, 2016 |
✞ 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] . ➜ Please 'SHARE' for the lost on any social media if you agree. 1 Like |
