How To Be Saved

How To Be Saved Many people wonder how they can be saved from the consequences of their sins and have eternal life. The Bible teaches that salvation is a gift from God that cannot be earned by human efforts or merits. Salvation is based on God's grace and mercy, which He offers to anyone who believes in His Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of the world and rose again from the dead, proving His power over sin and death. Anyone who confesses their sins, repents of their wrongdoings, and trusts in Jesus Christ as their only way to God will be saved. Salvation is not a one-time event, but a lifelong relationship with God that involves obedience, growth, and service. To be saved, one must follow the steps below: 1. Recognize that you are a sinner and that you need God's forgiveness. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." 2. Acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died for your sins and rose again from the dead. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." 3. Repent of your sins and turn away from your old way of living. Acts 3:19 says, "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." 4. Receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior by faith. Romans 10:9 says, "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." 5. Confess your faith in Jesus Christ publicly and join a local church where you can grow in your knowledge and love of God. Matthew 10:32 says, "Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven."

The comments section of the post is more troubling to me than the post itself, which is vague and dubious. Some of the arguments that these people are making are ridiculous and illogical. They seem to have no sense or evidence for some of their claims. This channel has taken a turn for the worse and I am seriously considering unsubscribing from it. It used to be a source of quality content, but now it is full of nonsense and absurdity. I am very disappointed and frustrated by the decline in standards and credibility of this channel. What on earth has gone wrong here that for it to have reached the low point that is has. I am surprised that it still has 66K subscribers. That cant possibly be correct? 

This was a place where I could express myself freely and share my insights. Not anymore, when the whole show is full of nut jobs and armchair Bible experts. That is a sure sign that we are at the end of the Church Age.

The Bible is a collection of sacred texts that reveal God's will and purpose for humanity. It contains stories, laws, prophecies, poetry, wisdom, and letters that span thousands of years and multiple cultures. However, most people do not understand the Bible at all. They either ignore it, misinterpret it, or twist it to suit their own agendas. They fail to appreciate its historical and literary context, its theological and moral implications, and its relevance and application for today. They miss out on the richness and beauty of God's word, and the transformation and guidance it can offer

A general misunderstanding of the Bible is that it is a literal and historical account of God's interaction with humanity. However, the Bible is not a single book, but a collection of writings from different authors, genres, contexts and perspectives. The Bible contains poetry, prophecy, wisdom, narrative, law, letters and apocalyptic literature, each with its own purpose and style. The Bible also reflects the cultural and historical settings of its writers, who often used figurative language, symbolism, allegory and hyperbole to convey their messages. Therefore, the Bible should not be read as a scientific or historical textbook, but as a theological and spiritual guide that reveals God's character, will and plan for his people. That misunderstanding of the Bible is no more prevalent than this channel or the comments section where most are totally ignorant of the Bible and do not comprehend what it is saying at all.
