Is Salvation By Works? No, "Only Believe" by Nobody: 6:43am On Oct 10, 2017
"...Be not afraid, only
believe."(Mark 5:36, KJV)
That was the word Jesus Christ spoke to
the ruler of the synagogue
when his daughter died-She lived.

There are many misconception of the
Salvation our Lord Jesus Christ
came to earth to achieved. Some people
believe that by their good
works, their eternity is sure; some think
by living the Law(Ten
Commandments), their Heaven is sure;
which is not so!

If our Salvation is by living the Ten
Commandments, then Christ
doesn't need to die does he? If our
salvation is by good works, then
why does Paul said, "For by grace are ye
saved through
faith; and that not of yourselves: it is
the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should
boast."?(Ephesians 2:8-9, KJV)

Something significant happened in
Genesis-the story of Noah. In 2
Peter 2:5, KJV), Noah was referred to as
"a preacher of
righteousness". When he built the ark or
while building it (of course,
it took him years to build it and Of
course, people would ask him
about the ark), he preached to people
and they didn't listen and they
perished in the great flood. What if one
had listen and entered?
He/She will be saved.
Well, in the whole wide world, only
Noah and His 7 other family were
saved. Just 8! And these 8 make up You
and I today, Halleluyah
