(2) What are your beliefs (based upon The Bible) regarding Salvation?
(3) Do you believe in the eternal security of the believer (keeping in mind that Salvation is based upon the finished work at Calvary; not upon what man can or can't do, due to human frailties)?
(4) If you do not believe in eternal security, do you believe in "losing your Salvation" or do you believe only others "lose their Salvation" when you see them overtaken in a fault?
(5) Is there a subsequent experience AFTER SALVATION concerning The Holy Spirit?

Response:
1) Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved. Acts 16:31
2) They are close to 200 times in the NT that we read salvation is by "faith" alone, with no works in sight. If salvation were not by faith alone, then Jesus" message would be deceptive. I believe we are saved not by works, but by the kind of faith that produces works.
3) Yes.
4) I believe in eternal security that once a person execises saving faith in Jesus Christ, he or she is forever in the family of God. We are told that at the moment of salvation the Holy Spirit places us in the body of Christ and we are permanently sealed.
5) I believe there is as the Holy Spirit will not push himself on you but if you surrender to His will you will be empowered beyond belief and have abilities you never knew existed. This comes from my own experiences.
Hi,
In the New Testament, it does say that repent, be baptized, and you will be saved.
Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, as an example of what He wants us to do.
I do wish you the best, and God bless you.
In the Old Testament it was the Ten Commandments
In the Gospal it was the Ten Commandments
in the Koran it was teh Ten Commandments
lets see the Gospal; Jesus said, "Keep the commandments." The man says, "Which Ones?" (Matt. 19:18 KJV). Jesus recites the 10 commandments. (Mark 10:19 KJV).
There is none good but One, that is, God." (Mark 10:18) (Matt. 19:17).
1. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. Thou shalt worship no other god
2. You shall not make for yourself a graven image. You shall not bow down to them or serve them.
3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not kill. (unless in defence against tyrants who do mischief in the land, or against the Talmud "oppresors")
7. You shall not commit adultery.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10. You shall not covet.
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord...
Matthew 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.*
Jihad in the Old Testament;
"All who would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, were to be put to death, whether small or great, man or woman. (From the NIV Bible, 2 Chronicles 15:13)"
"Now kill all the boys [innocent kids]. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man. (Numbers 31:17-18)"
It's odd how one of the 10 Commandments says "Thou shalt not kill (or murder). (Exodus 20:13)", and yet, the bible ordered the killing of innocent children and non-virgin girls by the mass!
Gen.35 [5] And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
Lev.26 [16] I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror , consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
Deut.34 [12] And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel.
Job.6 [4] For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God
Jihad in the Gospals: Jesus
"I say to you that to everyone who has, more shall be given, but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away.* As for my enemies who do not want me to reign over them, bring them here and kill them in my presence" (Luke 19:26-27).
Do not think that I have come to send peace on Earth.* I did not come to send peace, but a sword.* I am sent to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law" (Matthew 10:34-35).
[Matthew 25:31] But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory: and before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats; and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink? And when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, even these least, ye did it unto me. Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also answer, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me. And these shall go away into eternal punishment: but the righteous into eternal life.

yes, now do you understand what "repenting" and "baptism" mean?
[Matthew 25:31] But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory: and before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats; and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

A timely reminder in a selfish world.
Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world

Thanks.

Sorry, no time to answer by number. For now I will say that the answer to the question depends upon who it is that you ask, scripturally speaking. I would like to return to make more complete answer to your questions when my time permits, but it will take a mini essay.
you tell god you are really very sorry and you welcome him to your heart and try to behave yourself. And for those of you who think so no christians are not perfect. but some like to pretend they are so just do the best you can after that and live a good life. it doesnt take a rocket scientist to love god or to be saved either and its free.
