what must on must do to be saved?

Question

I am a christian and I want to know what the bible saids about being saved

Answer 1

Step 1: REPENT from worshiping the world's knowledge, including your own intellect.

Step 2: SEEK and ASK for the help of the Spirit (the Spirit is found within).

Step 3: BANISH Satan (spirit that rules this world) and his angels by telling them to "get thee behind me." Tell them "stop standing before my face!"

Step 4: BELIEVE in the Word of God (including the words of the Spirit).

Step 5: have FAITH in the Word of God (and the Spirit) to give you what you need when you need it. Here you must become as a little child, knowing that as a child, you do not always know what you need.

Step 6: HUMBLE yourself, disregarding your own thoughts, your own opinions, and your own way of thinking, placing the value of your own opinions at zero, and admitting that "someone" else may know more than you do.

Step 7: TRUST that the Word of God (and the Spirit) will not guide you wrong, but will lead you in the Way that you should go.

Step 8: OBEY the instructions from the Word of God (and the Spirit) when you are given the Divine Name of God. This is the Baptism into the Name of the Son, the Father, and the Spirit. This is the "immersion" in the Name, calling upon this Name in whatever you say or do while still in this world.

Answer 2

I don't understand how you are a Christian and want to know how to be saved. Before becoming a Christian you have to believe and before you believe you must become saved. People are not born Christians, they become Christians through a belief in Jesus Christ and being saved by His Sacrifice. I hope you understand the difference. Read Romans 10:9-10 and you will be saved if you truly believe what it says. Then you must ask for forgiveness and turn from your sin and pray for Jesus to show you the way.

Answer 3

Now get this point straight! We must remove all doubt about what brings salvation. It is a free gift from God. There is absolutely nothing that a Christian can do to merit or earn it. The only wage that human beings can earn is death. Before studying the subject of Christian works, recognize that no one can earn eternal life through works.

The Bible teaches that you are saved in three distinct ways. All of them represent what is correctly described as the process of salvation.

Romans 6:23 explained that the wages of sin is death. At repentance, baptism and conversion, a Christian is forgiven by the blood of Christ and is immediately saved from the penalty of PAST sins. So, in one sense, it can be said that the person has been “saved,” at that moment, from death.

But by now you recognize that this is not the whole story. There are two more applications of when and how a person is saved.

The word salvation is derived from the word saved. So, the second way is the most obvious, and it is the actual receiving of eternal life, the pinnacle of salvation. This happens at the resurrection of the dead in Christ (I Cor. 15:50-55; I Thes. 4:13-18), upon His Return. This is future!

But no one receives eternal salvation now. All must first undergo a life of trial, testing, learning, growing and overcoming.

So then, the third way one is saved is that he is “being saved”—an ongoing process—throughout his lifetime. Many verses reveal that nothing is automatic simply because conversion—spiritual begettal—has taken place. To believe that salvation is complete upon conversion is to mock God by ignoring all of the scriptures we have read about obeying Him.

For now, at least understand that Acts 2:38 explains that you must: (1) Repent and (2) be baptized and then you will (3) receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Repentance is toward God (Acts 20:21), because all sin is against God, and faith is toward Christ because of His sacrifice (same verse).

But salvation does not end there.

You must allow the Holy Spirit to lead you for the duration of your life (Rom. 8:14). You will, quite literally, have Christ living His perfect, law-keeping life within you.

Remember, He has not done it FOR you (and will not!), but with His help it is possible for you to obey Him. In fact, you will only continue to receive God’s Spirit so long as you obey Him (Acts 5:32).

If you continue to practice a life of sin, God is not foolish enough to tell Himself that you are righteous, simply because 2,000 years ago Christ obeyed His law “for you.”

Answer 4

You need to believe that Christ did it all for you. He lived a perfect life and suffered an innocent death just so you can be saved and go to heaven. You can't earn this. Here are some passages that I hope you find usefull. It is wonderful how God loved us so much that he was willing to send his one and only Son to save us from our sin.

Mark 16:16
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.

I Peter 3:18
For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Answer 5

Some simple points. 1-you must confess you are a sinner. 2- you must trust God has provided a way to be forgiven , and that it is thru Jesus Christs actions. 3- You must trust God with all your heart, mind and soul what John 3:16 says in the Bible is true and act on it. 4- you must not be ashamed to tell someone you believe. For by confessing with your mouth to someone that you believe, seals the thing.

Answer 6

That is you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9

He who believes and is baptized shall be saved, but he who does not believe shall be condemned Mark 16:16

For whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved
Romans 10:13

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God
Ephesians 2:8

Answer 7

Read Romans 10: 9, 10

This is the simplest verse I've found that explains salvation. Please look it up in your Bible.

Answer 8

why ask the bible when you can ask the man himself...direct...undiluted by the word of man...

ask and you shall receive...and no need to trust me on this...ask him!

Answer 9

If you learn to read and write better that would be a start.

Answer 10

I are glad I can share with you the love of God which He has revealed to us through the Lord Jesus Christ. The only way we have acceptance before God is through Jesus, God's only Son, who came from heaven to live on earth. He fully understands our problems because He lived as a man on the earth for thirty-three years. He did not sin, and yet He took our sins upon Himself and paid the penalty for sin by His death on the cross (Romans 6:23, Hebrews 4:15, 1 Peter 2:24). Three days after He died, He arose from the dead; and forty days later He ascended into heaven where He intercedes in our behalf (Romans 8:34 and Hebrews 7:25).

John 3:16-17 and John 10:10 tell of the great love God has for us. Because of His love, God wants us to come to Him just as we are. He longs for us to talk to Him freely about our sins and our needs. We encourage you to do this. Admit your sins to God, ask His forgiveness, and thank Him for His love and acceptance of you. Jesus has all power and authority over sin and evil (Matthew 28:18, Hebrews 2:14-15, 1 John 3:8), and through Him we can also live victorious lives. Read 1 John 1:9. If we give ourselves to Jesus, He comes into our hearts and lives there (Revelation 3:20). We are in Christ Jesus, and He is in us (John 15:4-7, Galatians 2:20).

We read in 2 Corinthians 5:17: "When someone becomes a Christian he becomes a brand new person inside. He is not the same any more. A new life has begun!" (TLB). The Bible also says in 1 Corinthians 15:57: "How we thank God for all of this! It is he who makes us victorious through Jesus Christ our Lord!" (TLB).

"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23)

"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin" (Hebrews 4:15)

"He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed" (1st Peter 2:24)

"Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us" (Romans 8:34)

"Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them" (Hebrews 7:25)

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son." (John 3:16-18).

"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10)

"Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me" (Matthew 28:18)

"Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death" (Hebrews 2:14-15)

"He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work" (1st John 3:8)

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness" (1st John 1:9)

"Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)

"Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you" (John 15:4-7)

"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me" (Galatians 2:20)
