The Way of Salvation Revealed in the Bible

Salvation Is Obtained Only Through Christ

"knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot." (1 Peter 1:18-19)


To Be Saved The Sinner Must:

  • Obey Christ


  • "And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him," (Hebrews 5:9)

  • Believe


  • "But 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." (Hebrews 11:6)

    "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned." (Mark 16:16)

  • Repent


  • "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent," (Acts 17:30)

    "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance." (2 Peter 3:9)

  • Confess


  • "For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:10)

    "Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning at this Scripture, preached Jesus to him. Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, "See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?" Then Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him." (Acts 8:35-38)

  • Be Baptized


  • "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned." (Mark 16:16)

    "Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?" (Romans 6:3)

    "Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Acts 2:38)

    All Examples of conversion in the New Testament include Baptism. Baptism is a requirement of salvation. When posed with the question, "...Men and brethren, what shall we do?" Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."(Acts 2: 37-38)
