SAVED FROM SIN, WE ARE HIS CHILD BY FAITH!

 WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?

The word "believe" appears 269 times in the KJV New Testament!  

Hear are a few clear examples!

John 3:14-18 - And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up (crucified):  that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.  For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.  He that believes on Him is not condemned:  but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the Only Begotten Son of God.

Acts 2:44-47 - And all that believed were together, and had all things common; and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.  And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, praising God, and having favor with all the people.  And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

Acts 16:31 - And they (Paul and Silas) said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved....

Romans 10:9-10That if you shall confess with your mouth (your faith in) the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

1 Corinthians 1:18-21 - For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.  For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.  Where is the wise?  Where is the scribe?  Where is the disputer of this world?  Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?  For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

Galatians 2:16 - Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the Law:  for by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified.

Ephesians 1:12-13 - That we should be to the praise of His glory, who first trusted in Christ.  In Whom you also trusted, after that you heard the Word of Truth, the Gospel of your salvation:  in Whom also after that you believed, you were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise....

Hebrews 10:39 - But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

1 Peter 1:18-21 - Forasmuch as you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation (worthless traditions and way of life) received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, who by Him do believe in God, Who raised Him up from the dead, and gave Him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

1 John 5:1, 5, 10, 13 - Whosoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God:  and every one that loves Him Who begat loves Him also Who is begotten of Him. . . . Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God. . . . He that believes on the Son of God has the Witness in himself:  he that believes not God has made (declared) Him a liar; because he believes not the record that God gave of His Son. . . . These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may (continue to grow in faith) believe on the name of the Son of God.

GOD'S MESSAGE IS CLEAR; BELIEVE IN JESUS!
