Genuine Salvation

“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”

— Matthew 7:13–14

Many people today have essentially believed a watered-down gospel that deletes the message of repentance. They believe in an all-caring, nonjudgmental God who requires no repentance or a change in their lifestyle. They will say things like, “I believe in Jesus Christ, but my God is not judgmental. My God would never send a person to hell. But I am a Christian.”

Yet they cannot have it both ways. They can’t make it up as they go.

There are many people, even in the church, who hold to a watered-down belief. This diluted gospel may be the most dangerous plague the church is facing today, because it gives a sense of false assurance to the person who believes it.

The Bible speaks of false prophets who give false assurance. In Jeremiah 6:14, God says, “They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly, saying, ‘Peace, peace!’ when there is no peace.”

It would be like going to the doctor when you are having a heart attack, and having the doctor tell you, “Oh, you are fine. You are being so dramatic! You will be OK.”

There are ministers today who say, “God loves you and everything is fine. You can do whatever you want and live however you want to live. Let’s just love one another and have a great time.”

But that is a false gospel. Yes, God loves us. Yes, God receives any person who comes to Him. But He asks us to repent. He asks us to turn from our sins. If we are not willing to do so, then we are not experiencing biblical faith. And thus, we are not going to receive what the Bible describes as genuine salvation.

Bobbi W asked:


When they cant decide among themselves what they believe.

Seriously there are non-catholic churches spliting every day all over the world so much so that there are somewhere close to 35,000 or more different groups (not churches)

They range from the extreem WBC people to the ultra liberals who permit anything. All claim to have the truth.

Now people have said “we agree on the essentials” but my question would be:

Who decided what the essentials are, some things that have been thrown out seem pretty clear from the bible,

Yet only one church has existed from the time of christ perfectly answering his prayer (that they may be one) and prommise (that the gates of hell will not stand) can any other group say that.

Im confussed about this so any help would be great

The Godless Heathen asked:


“Whether Cosmic or Microscopic, All Truth is God’s Truth”…… That being said, then why can’t Christians accept that evolution is truth?
You are wrong, there is plenty of evidence. I’ve read it myself. If you’d read a book other than the bible once in a while you’d know the evidence is available to you. Try the library. BTW, I’m not saying we evolved from monkeys, what I am saying is that we share a common evolutionary line which diverged eons ago. There are fossils that show a hominid type that has both human and apelike characteristics.

M?????? asked:


In 1Tim 3:16 we read in the bibles that translate from the TR (textus receptus): “God was manifested in the flesh”. But when we read modern version (which translate from CT – critical text), we read something like this: “He appeared in a body”. But, we have about 607 manuscripts of 1Tim 3:16. From the 607, 600 say “God”. 4 say “He”. And 3 say other things. It means we have to choose between 99% (God) against 0,6% (he) and 0,4% (other things).

THE QUESTION: why don’t the modern version, before translating this verse from the “critical text” didn’t consider the great majority of he manuscrips? Who can believe that only 4 is right and 600 is wrong?
Christ, the “defensors” of the “critical text” recognize that. They themselves tell us that. And if you want to know, we have 5600 manuscripts of the new testament, only 5% of them belongs to the “critical text”. 95% belongs to the “traditional text”, where the “textus receptus” comes from. You should STUDY about this, man. Seriously. All christiand should be careful about what kind of bible they’re reading.

The Bible speaks of “entire households” being baptized, a decision made by the heads of those households on their behalf. One can presume, though we’re not explicitly told, that at least some of those households included infants and small children.

davidm asked:


Every temptation falls under one of three categories: the world, the flesh, and the devil.

The Bible says, “For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world” (1 John 2:16).

A biblical example:
The lust of the flesh is the gratification of physical desires. Eve saw that the tree was good for food. The lust of the eyes is mental temptation. Eve saw that it was pleasant to the eyes. The pride of life is a craving for honor. Eve saw that it was desirable to make one wise.

hghostinme asked:


when the Biblical Truth is given and NOT church doctrine or religious traditional answers , they then do not want to hear it and go away angry , was it cause they didn’t want to hear the Real Biblical Truth to start with ??
The Bible is self explainitory , but when just scripture is given for the answers they refuse it , rather to follow church or orginazational doctrine instead of what it Plainley says ?

Chunlee asked:


How do we justify the Bible that we use as truth? What we use is a translation of text (or in some cases a translation of a translation). Things are usually lost in a translation
