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 ........
