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."

Five-Branch Tree of End-Times Bible Prophecy, Part 3: Jesus and the ...
The Blowing of the Jewish Shofar

I want to remind everyone that predicting specific dates for the fulfillment of Bible prophecy could have negative consequences. It may cause some people to lose interest in studying Bible prophecy and give critics of these beliefs more ammunition. Additionally, those who are genuinely interested in learning about this topic might be put off by these extreme predictions.

What concerns me the most is that these date-setters don't seem to understand that their actions go against the New Testament teaching of the unexpected nature of Christ's return. By introducing ideas that contradict this teaching, they are distorting the true nature of New Testament theology. I urge my fellow believers to wake up and realise the unintended harm they are causing to our understanding for the return of Christ.

Despite recent trends, it's important to remember that date-setting is not supported by the Scriptures. Jesus himself said, "Of that day and hour no one knows" (Matthew 24:36). While we may believe that we are nearing the time of Christ's return, there is nothing in the Bible that comes close to suggesting two events: a fictional rapture and Christ's return.

Our focus should be on faithfully watching and eagerly waiting for the return of Jesus, as the Scriptures teach, while not considering anything to do with Jewish Fall Feasts prophecies unless, of course, one is biased towards the Torah or the Hebrew Bible, which I am not.

Blessings
