What Must I Do?

Greetings Precious Family,

May the never-ending Peace of the Lord be with you always. 🙏

What must I do to be saved? How do I work out my salvation, once I obtain it? What does it mean to be sanctified, blameless, and holy?

These are questions that a lot of people ask, even those who have been Christians for many years. So over the next few weeks, we are going to talk about each one and any others you would like to ask.

The first question, “What must I do to be saved?”

Salvation is very simple, even though some people make it harder than it needs to be. Salvation doesn’t cost money or time. There is no amount of acts you can do to be saved. There is no amount of money you can give to buy Salvation. Salvation is a heart thing ♥️. Salvation is about your will, soul, mind, and heart. All of the things you cannot see from the outside.

Salvation is believing that Jesus was born of a clean untouched virgin and becoming the only begotten not made Son of God. Also, salvation is an Invitation from the Spirit of the Living God to accept the perfect work that Jesus Christ did on the cross of Calvary and the victory he won be overcoming hell, death, and the grave and taking his seat at the right hand of God.

Salvation is saying, “Jesus, I believe you are who you say you are. I accept you into my heart. Please forgive me for my sins. Thank you for sacrificing your life for me. Please fill me and lead me with your Holy Spirit. I receive you now!!!!

Holy Scriptures

Acts 16:25-34

New International Version

25 About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. 26 Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone’s chains came loose. 27 The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped. 28 But Paul shouted, “Don’t harm yourself! We are all here!”

29 The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. 30 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

31 They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. 33 At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized. 34 The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God—he and his whole household.
