Life's Great Question
“What must I do to be saved?”
(Acts 16:30)
The CORRECT ANSWER
to this question is of such great magnitude that our ETERNAL DESTINY
depends upon it. Let us be sure then that we look to the right source
and find the
BIBLE ANSWER!
We MUST:
HEAR
the word of truth. (Romans
10:13-17)
BELIEVE
the truth. (Hebrews
11:6; John 8:24)
REPENT from all sins. (Luke
13:3; Acts 2:38)
CONFESS
name of Christ. (Acts
8:35-39; Rom 10:8-10)
Be BAPTIZED
in His name. (Mark
16:16; 1Pet 3:21; Col 2:12)
WALK in newness of life. (Romans 6:4)
Be FAITHFUL
unto death. (Revelation
2:10)
Romans 10:13-17
(13) For
whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
(14) How then
shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall
they believe in him of whom they have not
heard? and
how shall they hear
without a preacher? (15)
And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How
beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and
bring glad tidings of good things!
(16) But they have not all obeyed the
gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
(17) So then faith cometh by
hearing, and
hearing by
the word of God.
Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to
God must believe
that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him
John 8:24
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye
believe
not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
Luke 13:3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye
repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Acts 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.
Acts 8:35-39
(35) Then
Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached
unto him Jesus. (36)
And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the
eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
(37) And Philip said, If thou believest with all
thine heart, thou mayest. And
he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of
God. (38)
And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both
into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
(39) And when they were come up out of the
water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw
him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
Rom 10:8-10
But what does it say? "The word is near you, in
your mouth and in your heart"—that is, the word of faith which we are
preaching, [9] that if you confess with
your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in
your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; [10]
for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and
with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
Mark 16:16
He that believeth and is
baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth
not shall be damned
1st Peter 3:21
The like figure whereunto even
baptism doth also now save us (not the
putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good
conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
Colossians 2:12
Buried with him in baptism,
wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of
God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Romans 6:1-4
(1) What
shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
( 2) God
forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
(3) Know
ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were
baptized into his death? (4)
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as
Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so
we also should walk
in
newness of life.
Revalations 2:10
Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil
shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall
have tribulation ten days:
be thou faithful
unto death,
and I will give thee a crown of life.
“WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?”
Acts 16:30-34
(30)And brought them out, and said, Sirs,
what must I do to
be saved? (31)And they
said, Believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
(32)And they spake unto him the word of the
Lord, and to all that were in his house. (33)And
he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their
stripes; and was baptized,
he and all his, straightway. (34)And when
he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and
rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.
