1 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,000 Madison, John 3:16 for God. So loved the world that he gave 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,600 his only begotten, son, that whosoever believes in Him. 3 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,100 Should not perish but have everlasting night life. 4 00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:19,600 That's how tan my sermon is putting all our trust in God for 5 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,600 Salvation. Let's pray, Lord, thank you for 6 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,000 this day. I pray that the sermon would be 7 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,800 blessing and encouragement. I pray that you would help me to 8 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,400 preach. Well, just name it. 9 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,200 Turn your back. My, I have three points for you 10 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,700 tonight. And the first one is salvation 11 00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:41,000 is by God's power. Turn your Bibles to First Peter 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:50,900 1:5. First, Peter 1:5, First Peter 13 00:00:50,900 --> 00:00:54,700 1:5 says who are kept by the power of God through faith unto 14 00:00:54,700 --> 00:00:57,600 salvation, ready to be revealed in the last time. 15 00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:00,900 So when this this verse is telling us that were kept by 16 00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:05,300 God's power, not our power, not our works, not anything else but 17 00:01:05,300 --> 00:01:10,700 God's power turn your Bibles to Romans 1:16 runs 116. 18 00:01:17,500 --> 00:01:21,700 The one there. Romans 1:16 says, for I am not 19 00:01:21,700 --> 00:01:24,900 ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto 20 00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:29,000 salvation to everyone that believeth to the Jew first and 21 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:43,400 also to the Greek go to Romans 11:6 11:6 Romans 11:6 says and 22 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,400 if by Grace then is no more Works. 23 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,100 Otherwise Grace is no more Grace but if it be of works then it is 24 00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:51,400 no more grace. Otherwise work is no more work. 25 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,400 So this verse is telling us that God's grace and works are two 26 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,700 separate things. If we have to work, And we're 27 00:01:59,700 --> 00:02:01,900 not putting all our trust in God for salvation. 28 00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:06,100 And there's only two ways to get to have really one, but we can 29 00:02:06,100 --> 00:02:10,500 either put all our trust in God, or we can work our way to 30 00:02:10,500 --> 00:02:11,900 heaven. And we all know that we're not 31 00:02:11,900 --> 00:02:17,000 perfect, and we're Sinners. So the Bible tells us that in 32 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:29,200 Romans 3:23, Romans 3:23. 3:23 says for all have sinned and 33 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,700 come short of the glory of God. And verse 24 says being 34 00:02:32,700 --> 00:02:35,000 justified freely by his grace through the Redemption that is 35 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:40,300 in Christ Jesus. Um go to Ephesians 5:31 289. 36 00:02:44,100 --> 00:02:46,700 For by grace are you saved through faith and that not of 37 00:02:46,708 --> 00:02:48,700 yourselves. It is the gift of God, not of 38 00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:51,600 Works, lest any man should boast, this is probably the 39 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,000 clearest verse. That tells us all we have to do 40 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,700 is believe to be saved. And there's no Works involved. 41 00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:01,800 I also want to notice where it says the gift of God, and the 42 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,400 gift of God is eternal life, and that brings me to my next point, 43 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:13,300 which is salvation is eternal go to John 363, 36 36. 44 00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:23,100 John 3:36 says he that believeth on the son hath everlasting life 45 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,900 and he that believeth not the son shall not see life but the 46 00:03:25,900 --> 00:03:29,900 wrath of God abideth on him. And this verse does it say 47 00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:33,800 believeth he that believeth on the son will have everlasting 48 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:38,900 life next year or in a few days? No, it says he will have that 49 00:03:38,900 --> 00:03:54,700 right away. an example of that is in Luke 24, I mean 23:23 Luke 50 00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:59,800 23 verses starting at verse 42 says, and he said unto Jesus, 51 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,700 this is talking about the thief on the cross and he said unto 52 00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:06,000 Jesus, Lord, remember me, when thou comest into came like 53 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,500 Kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, verily, 54 00:04:08,700 --> 00:04:12,200 I say unto you. I say it's V today that shall be 55 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,900 with me in Paradise. Now, did the thief had to get 56 00:04:14,900 --> 00:04:18,700 down from the cross and go do a bunch of works and be baptized 57 00:04:18,700 --> 00:04:21,200 or, you know have to live a good life. 58 00:04:21,700 --> 00:04:24,200 No. All we have to do is just 59 00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:29,700 Believe that he was God, he would get salvation away and he 60 00:04:29,700 --> 00:04:34,000 got his eternal life right away. And would you said we will have 61 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,300 eternal life right away. He was lying and we can show 62 00:04:37,300 --> 00:04:46,800 that we can look at that. And Titus 1:2 I just wanted to 63 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,800 says and hope of eternal life which God that cannot lie 64 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,000 promised before the world began. So even before God created the 65 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,800 world he promised everlasting life to anyone. 66 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,800 That beliefs not teach me to my last one. 67 00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:02,500 Are you sure? The Bible tells us how we can 68 00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:06,600 know how we can know we're going to heaven for sure. 69 00:05:06,700 --> 00:05:24,500 In John 5 and first, John, 5:13 First, John 5:13 says these 70 00:05:24,500 --> 00:05:26,500 things have. I written unto you that believe, 71 00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:29,400 on the name of the son of God, you may know you have eternal 72 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,500 life and that ye may believe on the name of the son of God. 73 00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:36,400 So all we have to do to know. Sure is Believe on the name of 74 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:49,800 the son of God go to Romans 10:9 and not understand 9 says that 75 00:05:49,808 --> 00:05:52,200 if Thou shalt confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus. 76 00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:55,000 And shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised him from the 77 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,700 dead. Thou shalt be saved. 78 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,600 This is say, believe in your works and God. 79 00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:04,300 No, it just the Bible, just says believe in the death burial and 80 00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:08,600 resurrection of Jesus Christ. Another verse that tells us is 81 00:06:09,100 --> 00:06:19,700 John 11:25 go to John 11:25. John 11:25 says this is talking 82 00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:23,300 about the woman at the well. Jesus said unto her, I am the 83 00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:27,500 resurrection and the right life. He that believeth in me though, 84 00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:29,900 he were dead yet. Shall he live and whosoever 85 00:06:29,900 --> 00:06:32,100 believeth in me, shall never die. 86 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,100 Believe yourself this. He's asking question another 87 00:06:35,100 --> 00:06:46,600 verse is, John 5:24 Verily verily. 88 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,500 I say unto you. He that heareth my word and 89 00:06:48,500 --> 00:06:52,200 believeth on him that sent me hath everlasting life and shall 90 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,200 not come into condemnation but is passed from Death unto life. 91 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,800 There's another verse that tells us that we'll have it right 92 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:03,100 away. Go to flip your pages in your 93 00:07:03,100 --> 00:07:12,700 Bible to John 851. John 851, says verily verily. 94 00:07:12,700 --> 00:07:15,500 I sent you if man. Keep my saying he shall never 95 00:07:15,500 --> 00:07:18,100 see death. Never seen death is having 96 00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:20,800 eternal life. Also on the Bible. 97 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,600 Can when the Bible says, if man. Keep my saying he's talking 98 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,300 about getting sick because God commands to get saved and you 99 00:07:28,300 --> 00:07:33,700 for Sean 323 Flip first, run through to my three. 100 00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:43,100 Your son 3:23 says, this is his Commandment that we should 101 00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:47,800 believe in the name of his son. Jesus Christ and love one 102 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,500 another, as he gave us commandment another verse is 103 00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:54,900 John 6:40. John 6:40. 104 00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:02,500 Three pages over. And this is the will of him that 105 00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:06,900 sent me at everyone, which see us the son and believeth on him 106 00:08:07,100 --> 00:08:09,400 may have everlasting life and I will raise him up at the last 107 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,500 day. I hope this sermon was 108 00:08:11,500 --> 00:08:14,600 encouragement and that you learned something. 109 00:08:15,700 --> 00:08:17,300 Let's pray. Dear Lord, thank you for this 110 00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:22,800 day. I pray that this sermon was 111 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:28,500 blessing and that it's pleasing.
