Jesus Christ, a JEW,
came to save his people,
the Jews, FIRST; but
when many of them
rejected him as their
Messiah (Saviour)
during his earthly
ministry because they
were looking for an
earthly king who would
save them from their
Roman oppressors; then
salvation was
offered to BOTH
Jews and Gentiles
(non-Jews). Please
keep reading for this
exciting Bible study
that shows how God
made THE WAY for
us non Jews to also
be saved from our
sins!
is for emphasis.
Words in red are the
words of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Matthew 1:21
And she [Mary] shall bring
forth a son, and thou shalt
call his name JESUS: for
he shall save his people
[the Jews] from their
sins.
Matthew
10:5 These twelve [all
Jews except Luke] Jesus
sent forth, and
commanded them, saying,
Go not into the way of the
Gentiles [non Jews],
and into any city of
the Samaritans enter
ye not:
10:6 But go rather to
the lost sheep of the
house of Israel [the
Jews].
Matthew 15:24
Matthew 15:24
But he [Jesus] answered
and said, I am not sent
but unto the lost sheep
of the house of Israel
[the Jews].
John 4:22
[Jesus said to the
Samaritan woman] Ye
worship ye know not
what: we know what
we worship: for
salvation is of the
Jews.
When the Jewish
Sanhedrin, which
included chief priests,
scribes and elders
and some of the Jewish
people rejected Jesus
Christ as their Messiah /
Saviour during his
earthly ministry;
then salvation was
offered to both Jews
and Gentiles
(non-Jewish people).
Praise God that He
wants all people to be
saved - Jew and
non-Jew.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack
concerning his promise,
as some men count
slackness; but is
longsuffering to
us-ward, not willing
that any should
perish, but that all
should come to
repentance.
John 4:42
And said unto the
[Samaritan] woman,
Now we believe, not
because of thy saying:
for we have heard him
[Jesus] ourselves, and
know that this is indeed
the Christ [the Anointed
One, the Messiah], the
Saviour of the world.
Acts 13:26
Men and brethren, children
of the stock of Abraham
[Jews], and whosoever
among you feareth God
[other believers], to you
is the word of this
salvation sent.
Acts 20:21
Testifying both to the
Jews, and also to the
Greeks [non Jews],
repentance toward
God, and faith toward
our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed
of the gospel of Christ:
for it is the power of
God unto salvation to
every one that
believeth; to the Jew
first, and also to the
Greek [non-Jewish
people].
1 John 4:14
And we have seen and
do testify that the
Father sent the Son
to be the Saviour of
the world.
Thank God for his offer
Thank God for his offer
of salvation to each one
of us (Jew and non-Jew)!
Praise and Glory and
Honor to our loving
and merciful Father in
heaven, God Almighty.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack
concerning his promise,
as some men count
slackness; but is
longsuffering to us-ward,
not willing that any
should perish, but that
all should come to
repentance.
And here is how you can
be saved from your sins
and know you will go to
heaven when you die. I
hope you will read all of
this message because
it is important to your
eternal destiny.
How Can I Get To Heaven?
How can you be
saved from your sins
saved from your sins
and know that you will
go to heaven when
you die? God's Holy
Word, the King James
Bible, tells us how:
Agree with God in
heaven that you are
a sinner and need a
Saviour. GOD SAYS
WE ARE ALL
SINNERS. But keep
reading because
there is Good News
for you:
Romans 3:23
For all have sinned,
and come short of the
glory of God;
Believe that Jesus
Christ, the Sinless Son
of God, shed his blood
on the cross to pay
for your sins (and
mine). Three days later
He rose from the dead.
Romans 5:8
But God commendeth
his love toward us, in
that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ
died for us.
Repent of trusting in
anything or anyone
other than Jesus
Christ (i.e. baptism,
good works, money/tithes,
man-made church rules
or traditions, or religious
ceremonies) to save you.
Titus 3:5
Not by works of
righteousness which we
have done, but according
to his mercy he saved us,
by the washing of
regeneration, and
renewing of the Holy
Ghost;
Jesus said that we do
not get to heaven by our
good works (stuff we
have done). See verses
7:22 and 7:23 below!
Matthew
7:21 Not every one that
saith unto me, Lord,
Lord, shall enter into
the kingdom of heaven;
but he that doeth the
will of my Father which
is in heaven.
7:22 Many will say to
me in that day, Lord,
Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy
name? and in thy
name have cast
out devils? and in
thy name done
many wonderful
works?
7:23 And then will I
profess unto them,
I never knew you:
depart from me, ye
that work iniquity.
Accept God's Free
Gift of eternal life
through his Sinless
Son, the Lord Jesus
Christ. It is a free gift
to you, but it cost Jesus
Christ his life! You do
not have to work to
earn a Gift - It is free!
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is
death; but the gift of
God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ
our Lord.
God tells us that as
many as received
Jesus Christ as their
Saviour and believed
on his name (trusted
him as Saviour), he
gave them power to
become the sons
(and daughters) of
God the Father in
heaven!
John 1:12
But as many as received
him [trusted Jesus], to
them gave he power to
become the sons of God,
even to them that
believe on his name.
So, if you confessed to
God in heaven that you
are a sinner in need of
a Saviour, and you
believe that Jesus Christ
died for your sins and
that God raised him
from the dead, then
you shall be saved.
Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess
with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe
in thine heart that God
hath raised him from
the dead, thou shalt
be saved.
And when you die, you
will go straight to heaven
to be with Jesus Christ
forever and ever! The
following Bible verse
is one of my favorites.
It gave me comfort when
I went through double
breast cancer surgery
for I knew that if I died
on the operating table
I would immediately be
in heaven with Jesus!
Knowing that is why I
no longer fear what
comes after death.
What freedom there is
in knowing that.
2 Corinthians 5:8
We are confident, I say,
and willing rather to be
absent from the body,
and to be present with
the Lord.
One note to all dear
Catholics: The Catholic
church says that it is
wrong to believe that
you can know you are
saved before you die.
Please think about
this: God is a God of
love. After all he sent
his Son to die for your
sins so you could be
with him in heaven for
eternity! That is love!
Why would a God of love
want you to worry all of
your life whether you will
go to heaven or hell when
you die? God in heaven
wants us to have peace
and joy in this life as we
live for him and draw
others to him as their
Saviour. Only a cruel
God would want us
worried and stressed
about what comes after
death. But GOD LOVES
YOU and wants you to
have peace knowing that
you are saved now and
can know now that you
are going to heaven when
you die! Please trust your
loving heavenly Father's
Holy Word (the King James
Bible) when God tells you
that you will be with Him
after death if you trusted
Jesus Christ as your
Saviour!
And now that you have
become a Christian, it
is important to learn how
to live a life that glorifies
God in heaven who gave
you the Gift of salvation.

Now That I Am Saved?'
