One Time Event Or Ongoing Process?

I have a friend who says salvation is based on “steps.” When I questioned her further, she said that means accepting Christ as her Savior, getting baptized, and being obedient. This is obviously against the Scriptures which clearly teaches trusting Christ as your Savior is the only way to Salvation. How can I best present this to her besides the usual John 3:16 or Ephesians 2:8,9 because she seems to know all the basic Scriptures, studies God’s Word daily, yet can’t see the light!

I have a question regarding satan. If he indeed studies scripture to know what he knows about the future, then why didn’t he know about Jesus’ coming crucifixion and what it was going to accomplish? I have read that if he could look into the future, he would have never let it happen. Am I missing something?

Apocalipsis 15-16

Un Estudio Bíblico por Jack Kelley

El momento para los juicios de las copas de la ira está sobre nosotros. Toda la ira de Dios que empezó en el Capítulo 6, se avecina. Esta se ha acumulado en etapas para darles a todas las personas que lo desean, y eso es la oportunidad de buscar al Señor y encontrarlo, antes de que sea demasiado tarde. Pero ahora el clímax está a la puerta. Después de que se completen los juicios de las copas de la ira, los justos requisitos de Dios para el juicio sobre todas las personas que han rechazado Sus serios e incesantes llamados para que se reconcilien con Él, habrán sido satisfechos. Por fin el Planeta Tierra estará listo para recibir a Su Rey y disfrutar la paz que solamente Él puede brindar. Read Post »

Small Group Leadership
