✞ Plan of Salvation ✞

What Must I Do to be Saved?

Hear the Gospel. "How shall they call on him whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe him whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?" (Romans 10:14).
Believe. "And without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing unto him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that seek after him" (Hebrews 11:6).
Repent of past sins. "The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commandeth men that they should all everywhere repent" (Acts 17:30).
Confess Jesus as Lord. "Behold here is water; What doth hinder me to be baptized ? And Philip said, if thou believeth with all thy heart thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God" (Acts 8:36-37).
Be baptized for the remission of sins. "And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit" (Acts 2:38).
Live a Christian life. "Ye are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light" (1 Peter 2:9).

Thursday Thought of the Day

Author: Brandi With An I

•3:54 PM

Since becoming a Christian, when I come in contact with people, I always try to bring up Christ and how we should live into the conversation.

What are the results?

Majority of the time it's:
"Who do you think you are? You're not perfect! Who are you to tell me anything?"

It's not that I think I'm perfect; I know we all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. But I know that as a Christian I'm charged with telling people the truth; whether they want to hear it or not.

I'd rather people be upset with me for a little while but change their ways as a result, than to be happy I'm telling them what they want to hear and they end up losing their souls.

Acts 14:15 -> Friends, why are you doing this? We too are only human, like you. We are bringing you good news, telling you to turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and everything in them.
