If you Answered...
Question / Answer
1 NO. - It is impossible
to get to heaven this way. The Bible
says: (see Romans 3:19-28). "Therefore we conclude
that a man is justified (vindicated) by faith without the
deeds of the law." (Romans 3:28)
2,3 or 4 NO. -
These things could never save you. The
Bible says:
"Not by works of righteousness which we have done,
but according to His mercy He saved us..." (Titus 3:5)
5,6, or 7 NO. - Good
works can not save anyone. The Bible
states:
"For by grace are you saved through faith; and that
not of yourselves: It is the gift of God: Not of works,
lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8,9)
8,9,10 or 11 NO.-
We can not be saved by works, regardless of how good or
well intended. God saves us by His grace (mercy). The
Bible says: "And if by grace, then it is no
more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. but if
it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work
is no more work." (Romans 11:6)
12 or 13 NO. - Water
baptism and communion are for those who are already saved.
It is not our work that saves us, but faith in Christ. The
Bible says: '"But to him
that works not, but believes on Him that justifies the ungodly,
his faith is counted for righteousness." (Romans 4:5)
14. NO. - This can
not save you. The Bible says:
"They which are the children of the flesh these are
not the children of God..." (Romans 9:8)
"But as many as received Him (Christ), to them gave
He power to become the Sons of God, even to them that believe
on His Name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will
of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
(John 1:12,13)
"Not of blood" means "not of one's parentage."
You must be born of God to be saved.
15,16 or 17 NO. - These
are man-made doctrines and are not taught in the Bible.
God says: "But in vain
they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments
of men." (Matthew 15:9)
18 NO. - "Repent
of sin to be saved" is NOT found in the Bible Repent
(metanoeo) in the original language means "Change of
mind" A "change of mind" from man's Unbelief
to Belief in Christ. Note its use in Acts 20:21….
Repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
19 NO. - "Turn
from sin to be saved" is NOT found in the Bible
This adds mans works to salvation and is an accursed message.
Gal.1:8 But though we, or an
angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than
that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Note Turn and Repent are two different words "Turn"
is never translated from metanoeo as "Change your mind."
"Repent" (metanoeo) is never translated from the
words used for "Turn"
None of these things can
save you. You can do nothing to earn eternal life. It is
faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone that can save you.
