CAN YOU BE A CHRISTIAN WITHOUT KNOWING THE TERMS FOR PARDON? by steve finnell
If you know everything about Jesus, however, you fail to understand God's terms for salvation or reject them, will you still be saved?1. Galatians 3:26-27 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.(NASB) Galatians 3:26 So in Christ Jesus you are children of God through faith.(NIV)
Will a person be saved if they believe all men are God's children at birth? Can men be saved if they deny that men are baptized into Christ at water baptism? Is it possible to be saved without being clothed with Christ?
2. Ephesians 5:25-27....just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, 26 so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.(NASB)
Can believers in Christ be saved if they believe that they were sanctified, cleansed, holy and blameless before Jesus washed them in water? Can men deny the purpose of immersion in water and still be saved?
3. Acts 4:10-12...by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead.......12 And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved."(NASB)
Is possible to deny that Jesus is the only Savior and still be saved?
4. Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;(NASB)
If a person denies the bodily resurrection of Jesus from the dead will they still be saved?
God's terms for pardon: Faith-John 3:16, Repentance-Acts 3:19, Acts 2:38, Confession-Romans 10:9-10, Water Immersion- Mark 16:16, Colossians 2:11-13.
CAN YOU BE A CHRISTIAN AND NOT KNOW OR REJECT GOD'S TERMS FOR PARDON?
Galatians 1:6-9.....if any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed!(NASB)
