For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord, (Romans 16:15-23 NIV). Jesus died so that our sins could be forgiven, but a life lived in intentional sin does not lead to salvation and nothing in the Bible suggests that it would.

The reason is because He knew God had sent Him into the world for one reason: To become the complete and final sacrifice for our sins. If He hadn’t done this we would have no hope of eternal life, because our sins would have kept us out of heaven. But He did go to the cross — and because of that, we can be saved.

In the Book of Matthew (12: 31-32), we read, “Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. I believe that God can forgive all sins provided the sinner is truly contrite and has repented for his or her offenses.

What does it mean to say that death was not part of God’s original plan for humanity? The separation of body and soul is the price humans have paid for Original Sin. By his Resurrection, he showed that love is greater than death and that death cannot contain his love.

Particular judgment, according to Christian eschatology, is the divine judgment that a departed person undergoes immediately after death, in contradistinction to the general judgment (or Last Judgment) of all people at the end of the world.

A Salvation Prayer Prayer is simply talking with God. You can pray by yourself, using your own words. There is no special formula. Just pray from your heart to God and he will save you.

God’s Redemptive Plan was written to educate both young adults and inexperienced Christians on what God did to redeem fallen man and allow for a restoration of fellowship. More experienced Christians and those who are further along in their spiritual journey will probably find this book educational as well.

Families are central to God’s plan for His children. They are the fundamental building block of strong societies. Families are where we can feel love and learn how to love others. Life is tough, and we need people we can lean on.

+ Romans 10:9-10 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.”

When a person is saved, it satisfied God because that person has been removed from the consequences of sin. – A person who is saved is made a Child of God and has been forgiven of his/her sins.

The doctrine of “once saved, always saved” teaches that it is not possible for a child of God to sin in such a way that he will be lost. This doctrine, however, is not taught in the Bible. It is an erroneous doctrine that provides a false comfort and a deceitful feeling of security.

Jesus said, “these (wicked) shall go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life” (Matthew 25:46). This is a future event. As we saw at the introduction to this lesson, Paul twice says, “We shall be saved…” (Romans 5:9-10). This is neither past nor present, but future, isn’t it?

This is the present tense aspect of salvation: sanctification. Finally, salvation has a future tense, too. One day, when this life comes to an end, we will step into the presence of Jesus, and the culmination of our salvation will become a reality. We will leave our sin nature behind.

Faith Alone. God’s Word says that we are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus and not by our own efforts or works (Ephesians 2:8-9). Grace alone means that God loves, forgives, and saves us not because of who we are or what we do, but because of the work of Christ.

Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, `You must be born again. ‘

You should not be surprised at my saying, You must be born again” (John 3:5-7). When Jesus said, “Flesh gives birth to flesh,” he was alluding to the idea of humans giving birth to humans. His name is Jesus and when we receive him into our lives by faith, he gives us His Spirit and we are born again.

Born again is a phrase used by many Protestants to describe the phenomenon of gaining faith in Jesus Christ. It is an experience when everything they have been taught as Christians becomes real, and they develop a direct and personal relationship with God.

Being born again means giving up your old life to live a new life through Christ Jesus. By accepting Christ, you can come before God and be born again. If you want to be born again, start by becoming a Christian. Then, live your life for Jesus as best you can.

Baptism seals the Christian with the indelible spiritual mark (character) of his belonging to Christ. No sin can erase this mark, even if sin prevents Baptism from bearing the fruits of salvation. Given once for all, Baptism cannot be repeated.

According to Jesus, you cannot be saved or you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven unless you are born again, (John 3:3, 7). In the Bible there is the concept that we ARE saved. The thing is that the process part of salvation does not even begin until you are first born again.

Regeneration = being born again = being saved. Different words to describe the same thing. Regeneration is a theological term for ‘being born again’ which means you are saved or no longer under eternal condemnation. Being saved or born again means the believer is now a part of the royal family of God.

While obedience should contribute to our assurance of salvation, we can also know we are truly saved when we regularly have a conviction of sin and confess and repent of our sins. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

The bible tells us that if you truly believe with your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead you will be saved. After you have done this, you can be sure that you are going to heaven. Because Jesus is the only way to heaven.

There is no proven theory that getting tattoos would be a barrier for you to reach heaven. However, if you strongly believe that having tattoos would not let you go to heaven, it is always the perfect decision to avoid getting tattoos.

All sins shall be forgiven, except the sin against the Holy Ghost; for Jesus will save all except the sons of perdition. He must receive the Holy Ghost, have the heavens opened unto him, and know God, and then sin against him. After a man has sinned against the Holy Ghost, there is no repentance for him.
