Apostle Paul said something amazing in his epistle to the church of Ephesus.....

Ephesians 2:8-9(NLT)

"God saved you by his special favor when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it."

 

 

Salvation (which is being saved/going to heaven) isn't earned by deeds or works. It's impossible for a person to attain salvation just by the good things they've done. 

Even Isaiah 64:6 said...."𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝒘𝒆 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒅𝒍𝒚 𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒚 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒆𝒐𝒖𝒔 𝒅𝒆𝒆𝒅𝒔, 𝒘𝒆 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒇𝒊𝒍𝒕𝒉𝒚 𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒔". Ouch! 

 

 

 

It's impossible to attain salvation by works simply because it's a gift! More importantly, it's a free gift from God. It's not meant to be earned, it's supposed to be received. If it were possible to get saved by works, we would boast about it but thank God we are saved by faith; this way, all praises is given to the Father.

 

 

That's why it's so essential that we take spreading the Gospel so seriously. It's only when the Gospel is believed that souls can received God's awesome gift.

The Truth

 People tend to only understand what they believe in. . . . That's the scary thing about this life. People tend to only have understanding of what they believe in and only that. . . . Look at a child struggling with maths, for example. That little boy or girl is not dumber than the other ones or not blunter then the rest. The kid just doesn't believe in the subject, maths, for satisfaction.  . . . The little kid rather plays a lot of video games or watch movies and cartoons 24/7. Why? That's what the kid believes in for satisfaction. Hence he understands everything about video games and doesn't have a clue about anything regarding maths. . . . The same applies to every human being. Every single individual are more likely to have an understanding in what he or she believes is the Truth. . . . That's why there are diverse religions, political ideologies, conspiracy theories e.t.c. Also consisting of people who have gone deep into that specific belief. These people are...

ITS ONLY CHRIST THAT SAVES

 ITS ONLY CHRIST THAT SAVES. Romans 10:1 Brothers and sisters, my heart's desire and prayer to God on behalf of the Jewish people is that they would be saved. Romans 10:2 I can assure you that they are deeply devoted to God, but they are misguided. Romans 10:3  They don't understand how to receive God's approval. So they try to set up their own way to get it, and they have not accepted God's way for receiving his approval. Romans 10:4 Christ is the fulfillment of Moses' Teachings so that everyone who has faith may receive God's approval. Apostle Paul saw that his people, though were very devoted about God, had no idea that they weren't saved. The Jews believed that the only way to God was through the Law of Moses and fulfilling its morals.  Jesus said "I am the Way, Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me". The Jews, though believed there is a Messiah, didn't know what the Messiah was saving them from. Hence, they rejec...

THE GOSPEL part 1

    THE GOSPEL part 1 What is the Gospel?  The Gospel is the message of GRACE..... as distinguished from the LAW.That means that the message of the Gospel (Grace) is a clearer image or better explanation of the message the Law was trying to portray. *Colossians 2 vs 17 *Hebrews 10 vs 1 What is the Law? Also known as the Torah, the Law is the name the Jews gave the first five books of Moses. It comprises of both the law given to Moses on Mount Sinai and the laws handwritten by Moses for the people of Israel. The Law was made to prevent the people of Israel from sinning. In Romans 2 vs 14, Apostle Paul revealed that there was also Law for the Gentiles such as Consciousness or thoughts judging their actions.      The Gospel cannot be fully understood and explained from the OLD TESTAMENT because Christ and His work is the true revelation. The Law was a faulty and unstable description of God's plan for mankind. What is the Gospel? "For God so loved the world, th...
