We are saved by grace.

KEY  SCRIPTURE:2Ti 1:9 KJV “Who hath saved us, and called us with a 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,”

Our key scripture is a very loaded one. It says we are saved by grace and called   with a holy calling. This seems to be a very simple statement, yet it  is worth so much. There  are countless religious groups, yet none of them is saved by grace. Every one of them is counting  on how much their good work or righteousness would outweigh their sins. The question is, is God a holy God? Would  a Holy God accept any form of defilement in heaven? God is a holy God and would accept a completely pure, sinless man in His kingdom. How can this be possible? It is only the blood of Jesus that can wash  a man completely of every sin and present him blameless before God. Col 1:22 KJV” In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:”

Please, if you are practising any other kind of faith, then  consider the following illustration. If a clean barrel of water has a drop of faeces in it, would it still remain pure? Dear one, no man can be saved by his works. Isa 64:6 KJV” But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” There is no salvation in any other except  our Lord Jesus.Acts 4:12

Dear one, religion offers  doctrines and laws, but Jesus offers life. He said

“…. I came that you might have life and have it more abundantly” John 10:10b. Anyone who bows to the Lordship of Jesus receives true peace. One simple test to check if you are saved or not is to ask yourself”,whether you have peace or not” Today is your day of salvation. Do not be confused, the blood of Jesus is God’s only provision to cleanse men  from all our sins.

THOUGHT:IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ANY MAN TO BE SAVED WITHOUT FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST
