How to be saved from sin

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Galatians 5:24


Are You Saved? From what, you ask? Let me tell you.


If you have not had the privilege of knowing that you are saved from sin; we would like to give you an opportunity to do so here.

believe

Understanding what we say in our articles depends on this one terribly vital truth. This is that you can be saved by trusting "He whom God sent"our messiah Jesus. It's that simple; put your trust in him and follow Him and His Word for the rest of your life and You will be saved, so the bible teaches. "Believe upon The Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved; you and your family."


Repent


"Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins ; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit"

NIV Acts 2:38

You will need to repent of the sins in your life and forgive people. You may have to make restitution to those whom you have wronged. The blood of Jesus will then cleanse you from all past and future sins and is able to give you a good conscience with confidence to approach your God(1 John 1:4-10 ; Hebrews 10:19-22) You are also promised to receive the gift of The Holy Spirit. He will come and live in your heart and home.

Obey the gospel

The mini Gospel bellow found in the Book of Titus contains all of the main elements of Gods offer of salvation to fallen mankind,

11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly , righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. Titus 2: 11-15


Jesus :The God-man

"There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12). Our lord Jesus Christ, the only GOD-MAN(theo-anthropos) is by his unique nature, the only person capable of standing in our stead and on our behalf in order to reconcile us to the side of God that is holy, righteous and just. That is the reason for his exclusivity as a saving and mediating agent not bigotry or narrow mindedness on the part of his followers. He is the only way by which God has designed for men and women to know him, be free from sin and be ready for the life to come.
