We can do nothing
to be saved from the wrath of God. The only way is to be saved and relate to
God is faith in Jesus Christ.
The Bible
says, “For “no human being will be justified in His sight” by deeds.”(Romans
3:20a)
That, “The
one who is righteous will live by faith” (Romans 1:17b); “For it is by grace you have been
saved, through faith —and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift
of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast”(Ephesians
2:8-9).
“Since all
have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23), we only deserved
the punishment of God. And the result of sin is death (Romans 6:23a). But we
have God’s grace.
God is Love
(1 John 4:8). In His love, God sent His Son Jesus Christ to save us. The Bible
says, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only
Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal
life.” (John 3:16)
When we believe
(has Faith) in Jesus Christ, God will save us and give us eternal life, to live
eternally with Him. This is ‘salvation from the punishment of sin and have
eternal life with God ‘through Faith in Jesus Christ’.
In other
word, the only way we can be saved from the punishment of sin and become the ‘children
of God’ is by having faith in Jesus Christ and received Him for our personal
Lord and Saviour (John 1:12).
The Bible firmly
says, “There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under
heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)
And the only
way of this salvation is, ”Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be
saved .” (Acts 16:31a)
Jesus says, “I
Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except
through Me.”
Therefore,
believe in Jesus Christ; accept Him as your Lord and Saviour. Invite Him to
control and direct your life. Then, He will come to you and save you from the punishment
of sin. He will make you one of the ‘Children of God’. He will also give you the
Holy Spirit to guide you live a life worthy to be called ‘the child of God’.
God bless
you.
