From: North Red Bank Baptist Church http://www.NRBBC.ORG Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heaven and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. We know He will come according to His Promise. What is that which determines His Coming? Answer: He is not willing that any should perish, it is His longsuffering that determines His Coming. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=251275&view=post&blogid=8651 Fri, 14 Jan 2022 00:00:00 -0400 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved to give everlasting life, to all who believe in Him. He wishes all to be saved in the sense of having everlasting life (1 Tim 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. ). And by His death on the cross, He made that possible for all who simply believe in Him. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=249862&view=post&blogid=8651 Mon, 13 Dec 2021 00:00:00 -0400 You receive the power/ right to become a child of God by believing in His name which is the same thing as believing in Him. [Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.] Believe in Jesus (the Person) for His promise of eternal life, For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. And when you do believe in His name you are "born of God": Born Again. Jesus, the One who did the work for you He is the one who guarantees you eternal life. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=249044&view=post&blogid=8651 Sat, 27 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0400 Upon believing Jesus for His promise of Life, you are united with Christ, Eph_5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For you to lose, by any means, the life He gives you means His life would have to be terminated for you to lose your eternal life. Eternal life and Everlasting life both mean forever. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=249002&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 25 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0400 When you believe the testimony of God about Jesus Christ, you are sealed by the Holy Spirit, "He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself;  he that believeth not God hath made Him a liar, because he believeth not the record [What God said about Jesus Christ] that God gave of His Son. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=248958&view=post&blogid=8651 Wed, 24 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0400 you know that you are Born from Above when you believe on Christ for His promise of everlasting life.  Also, you know it is the Holy Spirit that brings you to Christ http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=241820&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 27 May 2021 00:00:00 -0400 He is there for any person regardless of their spiritual condition. One day He stood amid the Pharisees and defended the woman who they said committed adultery, "…..Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.  Many years ago, I preached a sermon, "Five Words that got her in, Neither do I condemn thee"  He was not sent to condemn but to save, John 3:17-18; http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=241811&view=post&blogid=8651 Wed, 26 May 2021 00:00:00 -0400 He tasted death for every person, Hebrews 2:9, But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. {That you would never have to taste Spiritual Death] http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=240021&view=post&blogid=8651 Tue, 6 Apr 2021 00:00:00 -0400 From these verses, you know that you are Born from Above when you believe on Christ for His promise of everlasting life.  Also, you know it is the Holy Spirit that brings you to Christ. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=239531&view=post&blogid=8651 Wed, 24 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0400 Salvation is not about us and what we have done or not done; it is about Jesus Christ and who He is and what He has done and what He promised us.  We are not asked to believe a myth! We have the Word of God. We are not asked to make faith a work or to believe something into existence but rather to believe on Christ for God's offer of total forgiveness, http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=238960&view=post&blogid=8651 Tue, 9 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0400 Being saved is at the point of believing.  The word believe is used one hundred twenty-four times in the Book of John.  http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=238937&view=post&blogid=8651 Tue, 9 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0400 It is how Christ died for our sins that I want us to meditate thereon, the record of His death as given in the scriptures. "how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;" http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=197130&view=post&blogid=8651 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 00:00:00 -0400 It is no longer an "if." Christ did die for all, therefore, all had their sins paid for in Christ and therefore all are dead in Christ. His death is just the same as if we all died.To believe God is our responsibility, It is God's choice to redeem; it is our choice to believe! http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=193312&view=post&blogid=8651 Fri, 4 May 2018 00:00:00 -0400 The death, burial, and resurrection of Christ have already happened. Therefore, the work done for your salvation is already completed, 2Co 5:21 "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=193246&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 3 May 2018 00:00:00 -0400 With all the violence and murder and uncertainty in our world, we never know what a day will bring, but we know dangerous times are here. We all love our families and so many are scattered due to jobs, schedules, demands etc. Every day, we can no longer reach out a touch them physically but by prayer and the gospel, their lives can be affected daily. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=188555&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 15 Mar 2018 00:00:00 -0400 We have a salvation that is already finished. It is finished by Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. You are to look back to the cross and rest in the work done for you. Isaiah 53: 4-7, speaks of His work on the Cross. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=186775&view=post&blogid=8651 Mon, 26 Feb 2018 00:00:00 -0400 You must give some thought to my question, "Are you Justified by Faith"? This is a question of examination. It goes to our standing before God. If we are justified, then we are justified by faith through our LORD Jesus Christ. There is no other way to justification except by faith in Christ. If you are saved, you are saved by faith alone in Christ alone. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=186774&view=post&blogid=8651 Mon, 26 Feb 2018 00:00:00 -0400 Peace with God is based on a work done for us. That is the work of Christ on the Cross: His death, burial and resurrection. And that is the Gospel of the Grace of God, Rom 4:16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=182675&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 11 Jan 2018 00:00:00 -0400 Joh 6:35 "And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. "By the single act of partaking of Christ (coming to Christ), the Bread of Life, you will never hunger again. By the same act of faith, you drink the Living Water by believing on Christ for eternal life. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=172699&view=post&blogid=8651 Sat, 26 Aug 2017 00:00:00 -0400 Have you ever wondered if you are on the right road?  When it comes to the matter of Eternity, it is too costly to be on the wrong road!  It is too late to change roads after you die! http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=170932&view=post&blogid=8651 Fri, 11 Aug 2017 00:00:00 -0400 Strange as it may be to the unsaved; the truth remains that only sinners will be saved. And even stranger to the unsaved is that only saved people go to heaven. Tit 3:5 "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Tit 3:6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;" After all it was Jesus who said, "......They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Mar 2:17. There will be people who miss heaven because their hope for heaven is based on personal deeds and not on the Word of God and the testimony of Christ. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=169372&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 00:00:00 -0400 So well do I remember being convicted of my unsaved condition.  As I sat in Taylor Springs Baptist Church, the words of the preacher flew like a dart and pierced my spirit.  He said, "see yourself as God sees you"; "see yourself a sinner".  Up till then, I had never seen myself as God sees me, a sinner.  http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=169043&view=post&blogid=8651 Tue, 25 Jul 2017 00:00:00 -0400 When God gave the final things in the Word of God in Revelation 21& 22, He gave the Final Call for a man to be saved and every LORD's Day in the Church that invitation is repeated, Rev 22:16 " I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star." Rev 22:17  "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."  C = children may comeO= old people may comeM= middle age may comeE = everybody may come http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=169017&view=post&blogid=8651 Tue, 25 Jul 2017 00:00:00 -0400 Christ is your Saviour, that God sent into the world. That is the record of God's Word, the testimony of God. The Word of God can make you wise unto salvation through faith in Christ. 1Pe 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=164018&view=post&blogid=8651 Sun, 11 Jun 2017 00:00:00 -0400 1Jn 5:11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. http://www.NRBBC.ORG/How-to-be-Saved?articleid=159902&view=post&blogid=8651 Thu, 4 May 2017 00:00:00 -0400
