Next, they'll say, "Do you want to go to heaven?" Have you ever had anybody say, "No, I'd rather go to hell." My friend, understand this, everyone wants to go to heaven. They just don't want God to be there when they get there.
The question is not, "Do you want to go to heaven?" The question is, "Do you want God?"
"But I got saved that way!" No, you got saved in spite of that way not because of that way.
A man is saved only by faith ... only by faith.
In that moment of salvation, of belief, they are opening their lives to the person of Jesus.
It [salvation] is not this flu shot mentality of an invitation of the Gospel.
We call men to repent and believe. And if they repent and believe, truly in that moment they are saved in that moment. But the evidence is more than just the sincerity of a prayer. It is a continuation of the working of God in their life through sanctification.
It is absurd to think that a man can believe in Christ, with his heart, and it not have a radical affect on the rest of his life.
If someone is truly converted, they will publicly confess Christ in word and deed. That does not mean presenting them in front of the church on the night of their supposed conversion.
We have taken that truth, that if you truly believe and you confess Christ even if it costs you your life ... we have taken that beautiful truth and reduced it down to, "If you pray a little prayer before a bunch of people in a church in America, you can be guaranteed you were saved if you think you were sincere."
Again, the moment a person calls on the Lord he is saved. But the evidence is not that one time in their life they were sincere when they prayed a prayer. The evidence of their salvation is ... is there genuine repentance? Is there faith? And do both those evangelical graces continue on in their life and grow?
The evidence of justification by faith is the ongoing work of sanctification through the Holy Spirit.
The evidence that a person has truly opened their life to Christ is continued fellowship with Christ.
It was in His flesh that Christ walked among us and it is His flesh that He has given us to eat for our salvation; but no one eats of this flesh without having first adored it . . . and not only do we not sin in thus adoring it, but we would be sinning if we did not do so.
God passionately desires and ardently yearns for our salvation... Nothing is greater than this: that the blood of God was poured out for us.
Human progress planned as alternatives (to God's plan) introduce in justice, evil and violence rising against the divine plan of justice and salvation. And despite transitory and apparent successes, they are reduced to simple machinations destined to dissolution and failure.
The power of work, and the power of creativity can be your salvation.
Work, alternated with needful rest, is the salvation of man or woman.
Inspiration is highly overrated. If you sit around and wait for the clouds to part, it's not liable to ever happen. More often than not, work is salvation.
Christianity is the supernatural operation of the Holy Spirit.The faith once delivered to the saints is a miracle gospel, a miracle salvation with physical evidences.
There is no way of salvation except through the cross of Christ.
It is to the dead that the life comes; it is to the unloveable that the love comes; it is to the lost that the salvation comes.
Salvation is all grace, which means, free, gratis, for nothing.
Bear sorrows for the sake of the Heavenly Kingdom. Without sorrows there is no salvation. On the other hand, the Kingdom of God awaits those who have patiently endured. And all the glory of the world is nothing in comparison. My joy! I implore you to acquire a peaceful spirit.
UFO mythology is similar to the message of the classical religions where God sends his Angels as emissaries who offer salvation to those who accept the faith and obey his Prophets.
