Salvation

Embrace the salvation offered to us through God's grace—it's a free gift of unearned favor, eternal life, and unconditional love. Will you accept the love bestowed upon us by our Creator?

 

To receive this precious gift, recognize that we have all sinned and fall short of God's glory (Romans 3:9-12, 23). We need liberation from sin and the power of death. Out of His unconditional love, God sent His only Son, Jesus Christ (John 3:16-18). The first step toward the Kingdom is repentance: "Repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand" (Mark 1:15). True repentance means a change of heart that leads to a new direction in life.

 

Biblical repentance involves turning away from sin, being open to God's teachings, and continually renewing our minds through His Word. Entry into God's Kingdom requires heeding the call to salvation (Isaiah 1:18-19, 2 Corinthians 6:1-2), renouncing sin (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:7-10), and accepting Jesus Christ as Savior (John 1:11-13, Romans 10:8-17).

 

Through repentance, a transformative life awaits believers in Jesus Christ. Without this new birth, there is no life or relationship with God (John 3:3, 14:6). A new perspective emerges as we seek His Kingdom (Matthew 6:33-34), where God's Word becomes clearer and the Holy Spirit works wonders, bringing our faith to life.

 

Spiritual growth in the Kingdom hinges on obedience to Jesus' commandments and a childlike responsiveness to God's will (Hebrews 4:12-16). Lifelong fruitfulness as a Kingdom citizen comes from accepting the Holy Spirit's guidance (Ephesians 4:30-32, 2 Timothy 3:16-17).

 

We are called to "BOW": Believe, Obey, and Worship God in Spirit and Truth. 

 

Believe in Jesus, trusting in Him and acknowledging His Lordship (Hebrews 11:6, Romans 12:1-3).

 

Obey  God's will through faithful action (James 1:19-27).

 

Worship  is an internal reverence expressed in outward praise and devotion (John 4:23-24, Revelation 5:19-13). It's the believer's responsibility to discover how to worship God authentically, cultivating a relationship that nurtures Spirit-filled worship. True worship is not confined to a location, but is lived out in our hearts.

 

As we engage with the Spirit of God, we come to understand His truths (1 Corinthians 2:14). Our worship must be sincere and rooted in biblical integrity, reflecting a genuine heart (Acts 13:22-23, John 6:63). Understanding who God is fuels worship in Spirit and Truth, demonstrating integrity in both worship and life.

 

If you seek clarity on your purpose and God's will for you, know that Jesus Christ is the answer (John 11:22-27, John 14:5-6). The choice lies before you: respond to God or not, choosing between life and death (Deuteronomy 30:15-19, Proverbs 18:21).
