Salvation?



 

2Ti 1:9 KJV - Who hath saved us, and called [us] with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, | God calls us, and if we answer him, we are saved | Eph 2:8 KJV - For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: | The Greek word sōzō (saved) has multiple meanings, depending on context. Strong's: G4982 - From a primary word 'sôs' (contraction for the obsolete 'saos', "safe"); to save, that is, deliver or protect (literally or figuratively): - heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole. | In the bible aspect of salvation, the implied meaning is that God has done it all; preserved, delivered, wholeness.. to those whom but simply believe him and his word. | 1Th 5:23 KJV - And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and [I pray God] your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. | That we (believers) be pure in all aspects (God's wish), but of course reality is not so, as Satan still holds the cards in this world.

How then can we be saved?

Simply, when we obey (do) the verses of Romans 10:9,10. |
Rom 10:4-8 KJV - For Christ [is] the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them. But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down [from above]:) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But 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; | Rom 10:9,10 KJV - That 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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. | This is obviously a figure of speech passage. Interpreted (by me): When we wholeheartedly believe God's power (resurrecting Jesus), we are immediately changed (made whole). Afterwards embedded inside us is the 'seed' of God Almighty (our mystery spirit, who created all things), as our new 'spiritual' birth (born again). We are a new creation;  Invisible (seed), but present anomaly (spirit), and also our redemption ticket (rapture).

Rom 10:11-18 KJV - For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. | We Christians are presently God's chosen peoples, and we are whom simply believe. Without those to tell us, we could not know God. And therefore could not tell Gods tale of truth (salvation) abroad (to all). But the word did spread unto all, and the trend continues today; missionaries, internet, chat, books, etc. As the angel in Revelations proclaimed; |

Rev 14:6 KJV - And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, | The technology is (has been) here long, but this prophecy is yet to fulfilled, but has long ago begun (media, missionaries, etc). As with many Revelation prophesies; Babylon, beast, mark, etc. Which all will be explained later. But for now, back to salvation. |

Eph 2:14-16 KJV - For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition [between us]; Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, [even] the law of commandments [contained] in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, [so] making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: | Because Christ 'abolished' (more than fulfilled) the law (10 commandments, rules, etc) of the old testament for all who believe, there is now no spiritual separation between the Jews or Gentiles. It is simply by believing on Christ that we are saved: not by confessing our sins to the local pastor or others; nor by good deeds; nor by promises made from others; nor by reciting simple prayers of salvation, as is much presented among the Christian world as the way to salvation. It is simply a heart felt matter. We love God. If we do, then we also love others (friends, enemies); humans, animals. We don't hold hate in our hearts whatsoever.
