FREE SALVATION; HIGH
COMMITMENT
Salvation
through Jesus Christ is a free gift of God to mankind
It
is only through the grace of God that a person can be saved
Salvation
is being saved from sin and its damning eternal consequences
It
cannot be earned by even our best efforts or perfect deeds
Yet
God’s free gift of salvation to all is costly
Accepting
it calls for high commitment
Commitment
to deny oneself and live a Christ-centred life
It
calls for denying one’s self daily to follow Jesus
It
involves presenting one’s body as a living sacrifice unto God
It
is a sacrificial commitment that is holy, acceptable and reasonable unto God
Accepting
God’s salvation through Jesus is two-fold
It
involves repenting from one’s sins and receiving Jesus as one’s only Saviour
and Lord
It
also involves telling others about the salvation of God through Jesus
Accepting
to follow Jesus is a commitment to share the Good News
The
Good News that Jesus came to this world, suffered and died for our sins
That
He resurrected on the third day after His death and lives forever
That
Jesus is the only source of hope and eternal life to the world and its people
Sharing
the Good News is a great commitment to Jesus and His kingdom
It
requires seeking the kingdom of Jesus and its righteous first in everything we
do
It
is a commitment to choose and champion the cause of Jesus and His kingdom
The
cause of Jesus relates to soul-winning, discipleship and spiritual
multiplication
Have
you received God’s free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ?
Are
you championing the cause of Jesus and His kingdom?
Are
you sharing the Good News with the unsaved people around you?
