The only way to Salvation

[OneJack]

The only way to attain eternal life is by COMING to and FOLLOWING the Lord Jesus Christ until the end,

John 10:27. My sheep HEAR my voice, and I know them, and they FOLLOW me:

28. And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Matt. 11:28. COME unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 TAKE my yoke upon you, and LEARN of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

Matt 19:21. Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and COME and FOLLOW me.

John 5:39. You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me,

40 yet you refuse to COME to me to have life.

[1213]

Sorry, I think that is not exactly what is said in the Bible. I think it would be better and more accurate to remain in the idea that eternal life is for righteous:

These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.
Matt. 25:46
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23

The Living Christ Jesus instructed the rich young man who wanted to inherit eternal life in this way:

16. And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?

21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and COME and FOLLOW ME.


With the final words of the Lord COME, FOLLOW ME, therefore the only way to be saved is to COME to the Living Christ Jesus, whos unseen momentarily. and FOLLOW HIM unto the end.

No one today is yet righteous, thats why all needs salvation.

No one today is yet righteous, thats why all needs salvation.

Proverbs 10:3
The LORD does not let the righteous go hungry, but He denies the craving of the wicked.


Psalm 34:15
The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are inclined to their cry.

Book of Psalms belonged to King David hence theyre king Davids words, not the Lords. Do we have righteous today who do not need salvation?

I posted only for those that believe the entire bible (66 books) consitute the word of God. If that is not your case, feel free to ignore the scriptures quoted.

Have a great day,

You cant find anywhere from the words uttered by God and Jesus that the bible (66 books) constitutes the word of God, its just your opinion.

1 TIMOTHY 3:16

King James Bible
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

2 PETER 1:21

New King James Version
for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

1 THESSELONIANS 2:13

New International Version
And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe.

I recommend that this thread be moved to the Theology, Doctrine, and Dogma forum.

As I said earlier, Paul and Peter are not Jesus Christ and their teachings too are not Jesus except in parts where theyre quoting Jesus.
