SALVATION GOD'S WAY - PART 2

This is how to obtain Salvation as God has designed it in His Word:

Romans 10:9 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.

Salvation is an act of faith and not of works. We get saved because we believe. When we believe, God clothes us in His righteousness. We can never work our way into righteousness, because every good work of ours is like filthy rags before God - Isa.64:6 All our righteousness are as filthy rags. God knowing we shall never measure up to His righteousness in our fallen state, made a way for the just to suffer for the unjust. For the guiltless to take the place of the guilty - Isaiah 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit.

We have therefore been acquitted - if we believe and accept Jesus, we are declared free from sin, and earn a new nationality as citizens of Heaven. We stay on Earth as ambassadors of Heaven. God gives us the power to become His Children, we are adopted as God's.
John 1:12  But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 

Ephesians 1:5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.

Philippians 3:20  But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Saviour.

2 Corinthians 5:20 So we are Christ's ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, "Come back to God!"

Salvation is by grace, not works. God makes us righteous through the blood of Jesus, not by anything we have done or by any good work of ours- Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God

Titus 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.

So dear one, stop struggling to obtain salvation through good works. Accept the work of Jesus on the cross for you, and as you develop a relationship with Jesus, He shall by His Holy Spirit make you a new man, born again of His Spirit, bearing good fruits and good works - 2Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Today if you hear the voice of God , harden not your heart - Salvation has come to you!

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

GOD LOVES YOU JUST THE WAY YOU ARE - COME JUST AS YOU ARE TO HIM.
