A Hard Truth to Learn

 A HARD TRUTH TO LEARN

Sometimes, the most difficult path to grasping a truth is that you have to unlearn some things first. Let me say that again. Sometimes, the hardest thing for us to do is not learn something, but to unlearn an untruth that we have embraced for years! This is seen clearly is what most people understand about being saved.

Many believe that all you have to do is believe and they give you chapter and verse. 

They will give you the three A, B, Cs of salvation:

A = admit you are a sinner.

B = believe on the Lord Jesus Christ

C = confess Jesus as Savior  

And eureka! Bam! You are a Christian! Welcome to the Family of God!

What is wrong with the above?

Do you see any mention of repentance from sin?

Who is Lord Jesus Christ? What did He do? Why did He do it?

Any mention of the Lordship of Christ?

What about the importance of obedience?

What do you have to believe?

How long do you have to believe?

How much do you have to believe?

What does perseverance mean?

Any mention of the sanctification?

Those whom God justifies, He will sanctify!

Salvation is a difficult thing to receive.

You need God’s grace to do it!
