This book publication is so loaded and will be one of my most intriguing publication targeted at bringing the lost and wandering souls to Christ. Because of misinterpreted theologies, there are many who, after being prayed for and receiving miracles are thinking they have been saved. While some others come to the conclusion that Salvation is a 'one-time' decision by intellectually accepting' Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
But Jesus disproved the error of this teaching. "said Jesus unto those Jews which believed on Him, "If ye continue in my Word, then are ye my disciples indeed; AND ye shall KNOW the Truth, AND the Truth shall et you FREE." John 8:31-32. Therefore in this edition, we try to tighten all these loose ends of the most misunderstood teachings on "Salvation".
Salvation and being born again have become intellectual slogans, so messed up in such that the apostate teaching of "Grace" produces nothing but a disgrace to Christianity. But God is not mocked! What shall we say then, Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? Oh God forbid! How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Rom 6:1-2. As you will realize, it is not enough to just say it with your lips; but you have to truly show forth that you believe your confession. Many Christians just quote the first part of the verse Eph 2-8: "By grace are ye save..."; but the full text says, "By Grace are ye save THROUGH faith". Therefore, Salvation is "BY Grace THROUGH Faith".
But without faith it is impossible to please Him: "for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder of them that diligently seek Him". Heb 11:6. And we can read, on the day of Pentecost, Acts 2:37-38, we realize that "GRACE through Faith" was clearly demonstrated! God by His sovereign Grace had drawn all the people together to hear the preaching of the Word that would give them the Faith (revelation) of Salvation.
Peter preached the revelation of Jesus Christ, to the people and expounded them of the things that God was doing in their day, and what God had already accomplished in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. "And as always, the preaching of the gospel of Jesus convicted the heart and conscience of the predestinated sons and daughters of God. The Bible says."
That is the question we al need to find the answer. "What shall we DO- to be saved?" Now let us take not of Peter's answer. Then Peter answered and said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you [Jews), and to your children [Jews), and to all that are afar off [Gentiles], even as many as the Lord our God shall call (Jews and Gentiles)"
Now notice what Peter said:
- Repent (acknowledge and be sorry) for your sin of unbelief.
- Be Baptized (by immersion in water), in the NAME of Jesus Christ.
- Receive the Gift of the Holy Ghost which makes us new creatures in Christ
