salvation and how to get & keep it!
Salvation And How does one gain Salvation?
The word Salvation in the King James Version Dictionary is the following:
KJV Dictionary Definition: salvation. SALVA'TION, n. L. salvo, to save. 1. The act of saving; preservation from destruction, danger or great calamity. 2. Appropriately in theology, the redemption of man from the bondage of sin and liability to eternal death, and the conferring on him everlasting happiness. This is the great salvation. One thing that I want to make clear is that salvation is not obtained by reciting a tear felt Sinner’s prayer which is not found nowhere in the Holy Bible. The sinner’s prayer by itself is a man-made doctrine straight from the doctrine of devils giving people a false salvation that is against our FATHERS word If the prayer is said as the Holy Spirit(Ruach HaKodesh) leads you to do so in your heart then that is valid & acceptable to Our Father in Heaven(yahweh)(The Holy Bible).
So, salvation (i.e. being born again) is receiving the free gift of eternal life by accepting Yahovah God’s gift of salvation by faith in His Son Yeshuah HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) and keeping His commandments throughout one’s lifetime. We are then saved from Yahovah God’s wrath of judgment (i.e. eternal punishment due to sin that a person commits in their lifetime) through Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) who gave His life as a ransom for everyone who hears, believes, and accepts the Biblical Gospel or Good News that He came to share with us. He came to save the world and provide eternal life to all who believe in him and accept his free gift of salvation. The process of gaining Salvation is as follows:
A person must hear and believe the true Word of Yahovah God. They must confess and admit that they are sinners, and so what is sin? Sin is the breaking of God’s biblical laws( 1 John 3:4 4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; (M)sin is lawlessness) .Then repent from their sins and evil ways(Repentance means having a change of mind. In other words, a person must stop desiring to keep sinning in their minds). Repentance will influence a person to change their sinful ways and walk along the narrow path that leads to eternal life and keep Yahovah God’s commandments. Yeshua made this very clear in His own red-letter words about what path leads to salvation and eternal life in Matthew 7:13-14. Matthew 7:13 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Therefore, we need to strive to travel the narrow path as we obtain the gift of salvation which is eternal. This walk is important in our seeking salvation. A person must confess and believe that Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) is the Son of Yahovah God who died for our sins and who was resurrected on the 3rd day after His death by our FATHER Yahovah God. He then ascended into heaven and is sitting at the right hand of His FATHER’S throne. We must also be Baptized. By being Baptized we die with Yeshua (i.e. being immersed in water that symbolizes His shed blood for us). We are buried with Yeshua (i.e. the act of going under the water) and being resurrected as Yeshua was (i.e. by being risen out of the water during Baptism) ... Once we accept the free gift of salvation from Yahovah God through His Son we must also live our lives faithfully by keeping our Father Yahovah God’s commandments and doing His will. Yahovah gives us His Ruach Hakodesh (The Holy Spirit) to teach us His word the Holy Bible and to live a Holy life by keeping Yahovah God’s commandments too (1 John 5:3-4 ) For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. 4 For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith). We must do all the above-mentioned processes to obtain and keep eternal salvation. However, we must continue to walk the narrow path and stay in Yahovah God’s kindness to receive the gift of eternal life at the end of our walk. The Ruach Hakodesh is a guarantee or deposit for our receipt of salvation at the end of this life.(2 Corinthians 1:21-22 Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and anointed us is God, who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge).- Ephesians 1:14 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it,[ to the praise of his glory). on us so we will be redeemed when we stand before Yeshua to receive the gift of eternal life/salvation at the end of our earthly life after we die providing, we stay in our Father’s kindness during this lifetime walk with him (Romans 11:21 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off.) So, we must stay in God’s kindness and keep the Holy Spirit(Ruach Hakodesh) in us which is our guarantee to receive the free gift of eternal life at the end of this life here on earth.
NOTE: THIS IS THE 1ST IN TWO (2) TEACHINGS OF SALVATION THROUGH YESHUA HAMASHIAC (JESUS CHRIST) OUR SAVIOR & LORD.
