How exactly to be saved
A word of Wisdom
On How exactly to be saved,
Believe and be Born Again
And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying,
If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
But the other answering rebuked him, saying,
Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
And he said unto Jesus,
Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
And Jesus said unto him,
Verily I say unto thee,
To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Luke 23:39-43 KJV
The malefactor (criminal) who believed in Jesus that He is Christ (Saviour) is given an assurance by Jesus that he will be with Him in paradise when he asked the LORD to remember him when He come into His Kingdom (he believe Christ is his Lord and King).
We infer from Jesus' reply to the malefactor that paradise is the Kingdom of Christ.
Now, Christ is God and so the Kingdom of Christ is the Kingdom of God.
Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:3 KJV
In this verse, Jesus taught that only a born again man will be able to see the Kingdom of God.
Therefore, we can conclude that anyone who truly believes in Jesus, in that He is the Christ who will save us and also that He is our Lord and King of the Kingdom that He has proclaimed to us, is born again and will see the Kingdom of God.
It is simply this genuine belief in the heart and a confession of the mouth that He is our Saviour that will save you.
Without this, no amount of church attendance or activities, baptismal rituals, singing and dancing, doctrines and traditions etc. will save you.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 10:9-10 KJV
There is no need to wait, here and now, if you truly believe in your heart and confess (declare openly) with your mouth, you shall be saved right now, just as the criminal was saved!
