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)
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)
HEAR
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.
BELIEVE
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.
REPENT
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.
CONFESS
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.
Be BAPTIZED
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.
WALK FAITHFUL
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.
