THE WAY OF SALVATION

What Must I Do For God’s Eternal Salvation

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: John 1:12

“Believe” and “Receive”

What is NOT the Way of God’s Salvation -

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:13

John 13 tells us what salvation is NOT.

“not of blood” - heredity. No Household salvation.

“Nor of the will of the flesh” - culture and education. It is not what we know but Whom we believe that saves us.

“Not of the will of man” - prestige or influence.

“But of God” - by the power of the Holy Spirit of God. God comes down and redeems us, if we will only believe and receive Him as Saviour and Lord.
