Salvation – What is it?

Salvation is the saving of our lives.  To be saved, we must be baptized into the name of Jesus Christ with knowledge of the truth and faith.  When Jesus Returns the baptized will be resurrected from the dead, if found acceptable by God at the judgement seat will be given eternal life.  Man in death is unconscious in the grave and without baptism will never come out of the grave.

Christ’s reward is with him, it has not already been dispersed – When do we get this salvation?

  • Isa 40:10

Salvation – not guaranteed (notice the “ifs” in many of these verses)

  • Heb 9:28  If faithful unto the end
  • Heb 3:14 If we hold – confidence steadfast to the end
  • 1 Cor 15:1-2 Saved by the gospel IF they kept in mind what he preached to them
  • 1 Cor 9:27 keep – body –  into subjection: lest –  I should be a castaway.
  • Gal 5:19-21 They which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God
  • Eph 5:3-6 Filthiness – idolater – hath no inheritance in the kingdom of God, let no man deceive you.
  • Phi 3:11 I might attain unto the ressurection of the dead
  • Heb 10:26-31 If we sin willfully after we have received a knowledge of the truth

  • 2 Peter 1:10 Make your calling and election sure…not fail
