WHY DO PEOPLE MAKE BEING SAVED SO HARD
Some people make it hard to get the gift of Gods Salvation yet he tells us that all we need to do is believe on the only begotten son.
Let’s look at his word and see what a man must do to get salvation.
Romans 10
8But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9That 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.
10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
1. Looking for God he is right beside you
The word is nigh thee
His word is in our heart we just have to open it up.
Faith is strong if we look to him
We must have faith in order to survive in this world
We must have faith in ourselves and in God
Paul preached faith to all
2. Here is what God says
Confess with your mouth Jesus Christ is Lord
Believe in your heart he came forth from the dead
You can have salvation of God
He will save you if you just look to him
3. All not one have sinned
23For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
We are born in sin
We have all come short of God’s grace
We know what God tells us just stop listen
Sin is going against Gods law
4. For by Grace are you saved
It is a gift of god
We can do nothing only through God
His grace meets all our need through Christ Jesus
God gave his love to us who were unloved
Faith and grace save us with everlasting salvation
5. This is the most important decision you will ever make
Why not ask Christ in your heart today
Give him your life
He wants to love you let him
Heaven is the home of the saved
