Romans
3:10 = “ As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.”
Romans
3:23 = “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”
Romans
5:12 = “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death
by sin, and so death pass upon all men, for that
all have sinned.”
Romans
5:8 = “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans
6:23 = “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal
life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Romans
10:9-10 = “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 shall be saved. For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.”
Romans
10:13 = “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be
saved.”
Only
God knows how many dear souls have been led to the Lord Jesus Christ by
the above verses of Scripture. These
verses, commonly referred to as “ROMAN’S ROAD” are used worldwide
by Christian workers in an effort to present God’s salvation plan to
the lost in a step by step fashion. The Roman’s Road is wonderful for
getting straight to the point in dealing with the primary issues of sin
and salvation. Millions
have come to know Christ after reading these verses and it is our prayer
that more will come to know Him in the future.
But
there is a problem. Because
of the habitual use of such quick and easy portions of Scripture, more
and more Christians are developing a very shallow concept of New
Testament Salvation. Time
and time again people who profess to be saved and yet they aren’t sure
about their eternal destiny. Many
of these people can tell of a specific time in their life when they
prayed and asked the Lord to come into their heart and save them, but
still today they live in a state of uncertainty.
This should not be happening.
Then
there are others who have never been saved and really do not understand
the need to be saved. I
believed there are many people who would like to have a better
understanding of Jesus Christ and the salvation He offers, and such
people WILL received Christ once they truly understand their need for
Him.
If
you fit one of these categories, this message is for you.
This
message has been written for the sole purpose of helping people like you
to UNDERSTAND New Testament salvation.
So why not set aside a little time and read this message and you
will not be disappointed as the Lord Jesus said in Luke
11:9-10 = And I say unto you, ask and it shall be given you; seek, and
he shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
For everyone that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth;
and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”
