ONLY JESUS CAN SAVE, why Is That So? by DoctorStephen(m): 2:24pm On Dec 10, 2013
This is the GOSPEL:
For
G- God so loved the world,that he gave his
O- Only begotten
S- Son,that whosoever believeth in him should not
P- Perish,but have
E- Everlasting
L- Life
(John 3:16)

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."Acts 4:12
Repentance and faith in Jesus Christ brings salvation.
"But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."Romans 10:8-10,13
"Repent ye therefore,and be converted,that your sins may be blotted out.."Acts 3:19

Col. 1:21 Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of [Or minds, as shown by] your evil behaviour.
Col. 1:22 But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation.


The human race began with a human seed—Adam. This human seed multiplied and filled the world. But the human seed and his race became God’s enemies due to bad behavior. God so much loves the human race, but He cannot get near to them because of their sins. In order to solve this problem, God had to send a new human seed into the world (an Adam). God could easily have ended the human race and begun a new one through the new Adam, but due to His love for the human race, He rather arranged for the old human race to be saved. This required that the new Adam must die for the sins of the old one. The new Adam, Jesus Christ, did exactly that. The sins of the human race have been atoned for. God can now get near to man, and vice-versa. That is the good news or the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Benefits

What benefits does reconciliation to God really offer to mankind? Is it just about the fictitious heaven and hell? Well, reconciliation to God actually brings heaven down to earth. Reconciliation to God brings us into direct contact with the Spirit of God—the hand or arm of God. Not only that, God allows us to use His hand (His Spirit) to do His will, just like wearing His hand on us and thereby greatly extend our capabilities. In fact, nothing that is in the will of God becomes impossible for us.

Unfortunately, you do not commonly see human beings enjoying these benefits; not even those who claim to be so close to God. What is the reason for this situation? The reason is simply lack of knowledge. But now the time has arrived for an explosion of divine knowledge to occur. The biblical end time has arrived.

How to Personalize Reconciliation

Mk. 16:16 Whoever believes and is baptised will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

Ac. 2:37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”
Ac. 2:38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptised, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”


Anyone who believes the good news should present her/himself for water baptism. Baptism should not come before believing the good news. Baptism is initiation into the body of Christ. Acts 2:38 says that if baptism is done properly, God forgives the sin of the baptized and gives her/him the Holy Spirit (the hand of God). Even though we may not see any sign of forgiveness of sins or gift of the Holy Spirit, we have to believe that it has happened just as God said it should; that is what faith is all about—believing without seeing.

Even though Jesus Christ has reconciled human beings to God generally through His blood that was shed on the cross, each human being still needs to personalize the reconciliation and then personalize the benefits by wearing and using the hand (or Spirit) of God. Many human beings have already personalized the reconciliation with God, but wearing and operating of the hand of God is not commonplace at all. It will be covered in Spiritual Training 2.
