If, as claimed, one is saved at the moment that they believe and call on the name of Jesus, what then is this reference to obeying the gospel? As a part of what she said, she commented on what she referred to as, The so-called plan of salvation. He wrote, How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? In Jesus' own words baptism precedes salvation (Mark 16:16).
In Romans 1:5, Paul explains that the Apostles were given authority "to bring about obedience of the faith. " Confession/calling on the name of the Lord is essential to salvation, but nowhere does the Bible claim that believing in Jesus and calling on His name is all that is required for salvation. Common sense tells us that when one hears the gospel that believing it is essential to salvation. God's Plan of Salvation.
Ananias said to Saul, Why are you waiting? These, therefore are all preliminary steps in God's plan of salvation. Faith is belief in action and is expressed by our fruit, (the actions of our life. ) The writer of the book of Hebrews wrote, 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. Jesus didn't mention baptism as an after thought, but rather as a pre-requisite for salvation.
He wrote, Godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, For observe this very thing, that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! Paul, himself, knew that this statement was somewhat ambiguous and therefore he offered an explanation. The third step in the plan is to Repent. For `whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. ' We have already looked at Hearing and Believing the Gospel. The word translated repent literally means to perceive afterwards, and it signifies to change one's mind or purpose (Vine's Expository Dictionary of Old & New Testament Words pp.
After hearing and believing, those in Acts 2 where told to repent (Acts 2:38). For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report? " Part 1 (Hearing the. Repent: "I tell you no! The book of 1st Corinthians defines the "Gospel" as the good news about the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Certainly, from a biblical standpoint, we must believe that there is a God and that Jesus is the only-begotten Son of God, sent to save those who believe (John 3:16). These too, along with many other commands are biblical requirements and a part of God's overall plan for saving man. It was in no way intended to ever be a formal church doctrine or creed, but rather a helpful, five-step guide to lead the lost to Christ. It is clear to me that these first two steps, have not only strong New Testament support, but they also make good common sense. In baptism we find entrance into Christ. In order to become a Christian, one must obey the Lord's instructions to: 1. Saul (Later known as the apostle Paul): Acts 9:1-6, Acts 22:16. For example, if one never heard the gospel how could that one possibly believe in something that he/she knows nothing about (Romans 10:14)? "With the mouth confession is made unto salvation. "
In baptism we come into contact with the blood of Christ. We must live faithfully / We must try to live a life that follows the teachings of Jesus. "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God" (Ephesians 2:8-10). Lydia and her household: Acts 16:15. Colossians 1:23; Hebrews 4:11 - We must continue in the faith and be diligent to enter into God's eternal rest. Hear: "Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ. " After one hears the Gospel, and believes that Jesus is the Son of God, he must then be willing to repent of his sins. Part 3 (Repenting of Sins).
Commands all men everywhere to repent. " The above passages, and others, removed from their immediate context and from the overall context of the Bible, would make it appear that all one has to do to be saved is believe and call on the name of Jesus. Certainly, it should go without saying that before one can believe in Christ (John 3:16) or obey the gospel (2Thessalonians 1:6-10), that one must first hear the word of God. Allow me again to state my opinion that the formula of Hear, Believe, Repent, Confess, Be Baptized was never intended to be a formal church doctrine or creed, but rather a helpful, five-step guide to lead the lost to Christ. What you believe about God requires diligent seeking. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. " For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. Once when I was teaching a Wednesday evening Bible class one of the ladies in the class spoke up. In this context Jesus is not talking about the basic belief in God, but rather believing the gospel (good news of Jesus' death, burial and resurrection (1Cor. In this, we see that salvation, while certainly an act of grace on God's part, is not passively obtained. Jesus said, Go into all the world and preach the gospel. Paul wrote, As many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Peter and Paul also said that baptism causes the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38, 22:16).
