The Graphic Gospel (4): Salvation

SALVATION

Through Christ,

God in perfect love,

great mercy, and amazing grace

made a way where there seemed

to be no way.

Because of Jesus’ death

and resurrection,

salvation is available to

all who by God’s grace

put their faith in Christ.

For the grace of God has appeared,

bringing salvation for all people.

Ti. 2:11 ESV

But God, being rich in mercy,

because of the great love with

which he loved us, even when

we were dead in our trespasses,

made us alive together with Christ. . .

For by grace you have been

saved through faith.

And this is not your own doing;

it is the gift of God,

not a result of works,

so that no one may boast.

Eph. 2:4-5a, 8-9 ESV

If you confess with your

mouth that Jesus is Lord

and believe in your heart that

God raised him from the dead,

you will be saved.

Rom. 10:9 ESV

God has provided the way out.

He has shown light

into the darkness.

Because of His great mercy,

he has caused us to be born again

to a living hope through

the resurrection of Jesus Christ

from the dead.

Taking the Truth to Heart

What an indescribable,

immeasurable gift

God has given

to us in Christ.

He has not only saved us from

death, darkness, and destruction,

He has given us life, light,

restoration, and every spiritual

blessing for eternity!

When we were transferred

from the kingdom of darkness

to the kingdom of light

our entire operating system

was replaced.

We were given a new heart

and a new mind.

We were given the heart and

mind of Christ.

When we look in the mirror

we may look the same,

there may not be any

outward visual change

but we on the inside we are

an entirely different.

We are in Christ

and Christ is in us!

This is transforming truth.

May we be transformed by it.

(For reference: 2 Cor. 2:9-16,

Galatians 2:20, Ephesians 1,

1 Peter 1:3-8)

“See what kind of love the

Father has given to us that

we should be called

children of God!”

1 Jn. 3:1 ESV

It is so hard for us to

see ourselves now for who

we are. We only see in part.
