Salvation?
Everyone you talk to has ideas on salvation. Some say you have to do this, some that, some say it doesn’t matter. So I thought I would put together a list of what the Bible says. I will start with new testament verses, providing no commentary. You can read them, think about them, pray about them, and come to your own conclusions. Please remember that these verses are presented here out of context, so look them up and read them along with the surrounding verses. The list will probably grow over the next few months so check back. Feel free to comment.
Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Joh 3:14-18 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Act 2:38 Then Peter 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.Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.Rom 10:9-10 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. Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Act 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 2Co 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Tit 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
