What Must I do to be Saved?
2
Who Can Be Saved?

• All
• Matthew 1128 Come to Me, all you who labour and
  are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
• Hebrews 29 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, might taste death for
  everyone.
• Titus 211 For the grace of God that brings
  salvation has appeared to all men

3
What Must We Do?

• Hear Him
• Matthew 175 While he was still speaking,
  behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them and
  suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying,
  This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well
  pleased. Hear Him!
• John 534 Yet I (Jesus) do not receive testimony
  from man, but I say these things that you may be
  saved.

4
What Must We Do?

• Call on His name
• Acts 221 And it shall come to pass That whoever
  calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.
• Matthew 721 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord,
  Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he
  who does the will of My Father in heaven.
• Matthew 2818 And Jesus came and spoke to them,
  saying, All authority has been given to Me in
  heaven and on earth.

5
Believe Him

• Believers must be baptised
• Mark 1616 He who believes and is baptized will
  be saved but he who does not believe will be
  condemned.

6
Believers must

• Enter by Christ only
• John 109 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me,
  he will be saved, and will go in and out and find
  pasture.
• John 146 Jesus said to him, I am the way, the
  truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father
  except through Me.

7
Believers must

• Endure
• Matthew 1022 And you will be hated by all for
  My names sake. But he who endures to the end
  will be saved.

8
What Can I Do?

• Learn the truth
• John 832 And you shall know the truth, and the
  truth shall make you free.
• John 1717 Sanctify them by Your truth. Your
  word is truth.
• Romans 1014 How then shall they call on Him in
  whom they have not believed? And how shall they
  believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And
  how shall they hear without a preacher?

9
What is The Truth

• The Truth
• Romans 15-18And how shall they preach unless
  they are sent? As it is written How beautiful
  are the feet of those who preach the gospel of
  peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!
  16But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For
  Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?
  17So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by
  the word of God. 18But I say, have they not
  heard? Yes indeed Their sound has gone out to
  all the earth, And their words to the ends of the
  world.
• See also Matthew 133-23.

10
Believe in Him

• Believe in Christ
• John 824 Therefore I said to you that you will
  die in your sins for if you do not believe that
  I am He, you will die in your sins.
• John 2031 but these are written that you may
  believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God,
  and that believing you may have life in His
  name.
• Hebrews 116 But without faith it is impossible
  to please Him, for he who comes to God must
  believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of
  those who diligently seek Him.

11
Repent

• Repent of all sins
• Luke 133 I tell you, no but unless you repent
  you will all likewise perish
• Acts 1730-31 Truly, these times of ignorance
  God overlooked, but now commands all men
  everywhere to repent, 31because He has appointed
  a day on which He will judge the world in
  righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He
  has given assurance of this to all by raising Him
  from the dead.

12
Repentance

• What leads to repentance?
• Romans 24 Or do you despise the riches of His
  goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not
  knowing that the goodness of God leads you to
  repentance?
• 2 Corinthians 79-10 Now I rejoice, not that you
  were made sorry, but that your sorrow led to
  repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly
  manner, that you might suffer loss from us in
  nothing. 10For godly sorrow produces repentance
  leading to salvation, not to be regretted but
  the sorrow of the world produces death.

13
Confess

• Confess faith in Christ
• Romans 1010 For with the heart one believes
  unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession
  is made unto salvation.
• Acts 837 Then Philip said, If you believe with
  all your heart, you may. And he answered and
  said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of
  God.
• Matthew 1616 Simon Peter answered and said, You
  are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

14
Baptized

• Be baptized INTO Christ (i.e., unto, in order to
  obtain remissions of sins).
• Acts 238 Then Peter said to them, Repent, and
  let every one of you be baptized in the name of
  Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you
  shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
• Acts 2216 And now why are you waiting? Arise
  and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling
  on the name of the Lord.
• Galatians 327 For as many of you as were
  baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
