WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?

SALVATION IS IN CHRIST (2 Timothy 2:10).

 ARE YOU IN THAT SPIRITUAL LOCATION?

TO BE SAVED THE BIBLE TEACHES THAT ONE MUST:  

1. Hear the Word of God (Romans 10:17). (But this hearing does not place us IN CHRIST)  

2. Believe that Jesus is the Son of God (John 8:24). (But this believing does not place us IN CHRIST).  

3. Repent of sin (Luke 13:3). (But this repenting does not place us IN CHRIST).  

4. Confess with our mouths that Jesus Christ is the Son of God (Acts 8:37; Romans 10:9, 10). (But this confession does not place us IN CHRIST).

5. Be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38; Acts 22:16) 

(This baptism places one “into Christ” where His blood washes away all sins and where salvation exists -Romans 6:3, 4; Galatians 3:27). It is in this baptism that we take part in the death of Christ wherein He shed His blood, and His burial and His resurrection and this is how we are “BORN AGAIN” by the water and by the Spirit (John 3:3-5). Then after becoming a Christian, the word of God instructs us, “...be thou faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life” (Revelation 2:10b). This is how Saul of Tarsus called upon the name of the Lord to be saved.  Ananias the preacher told Saul, “And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord” (Acts 22:16). Yes, when Saul, who became the beloved apostle Paul, called upon the name of the Lord by being baptized into Christ, the blood of Jesus washed away his sins.   Have you done this?

Please let me know if I may assist you in changing your spiritual location.
