 What Must I Do to be Saved?



“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved” (Acts 16:31).

“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name” (John 20:31).

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

“He that believeth on him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:18).

“He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life” (John 3:36).

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them which believe on his name” (John 1:12).

“And by him all that believe are justified” (Acts 13:39)

“He that heareth my word and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life” (John 5:24).

“Whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins” (Acts 10:43).

“Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe” (Rom. 3:22).

“It [righteousness] shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus” (Rom. 4:24).

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” (Rom. 10:9).

“It pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe” (Rom. 1:21).

“We are...of them that believe to the saving of the soul” (Heb. 10:39).

“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God” ( 1 John 5:1).

“For we which have believed do enter into rest” (Heb. 4:3).

“Believe and be saved” (Luke 8:12).

“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life” (1 John 5:13).

“Even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified” (Gal. 2:16).

“After that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit” (Eph. 1:13).

“He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall damned”

“Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God”

(1 John 5;5).

What About Works For Salvation?

“And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise, grace is no more grace. But if it be by works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work” (Rom 11:6).

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is a gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast” (Eph. 2:8).

“This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent” (John 6:29)

“This is his commandment, That we should believe in the name of his Son” (1 John 3:23).

“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us” (Titus 3:5).

“But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness” (Rom. 4:5).

“Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law” (Rom.28).

“Of works? Nay: but by the law of faith” (Rom. 3:27).

“A man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ” (Eph. 2:16).

“Being justified by faith, we have peace” (Rom. 5:1).

“Salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus” (2 Tim. 3:15).

“Not having my own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith” (Phil. 3:9).

“Who hath saved us...not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace” (2 Tim. 1:9).

“If righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain” (Gal. 2:21).

What is Repentance? (Change of mind, reversal)

“Repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God” (Heb. 6:1).

“Repent ye and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15).

“Repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ” (Acts 20:21).

“John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus” (Acts 19:4).

But Faith Without Works is Dead!

The Bible plainly says faith saves us, not works. But the true saving faith of a born-again Christian will always produce works, just as a live baby will produce movement. Abraham was justified by faith apart from works years before he offered up Isaac. By his works he was justified in front of men. To try to be saved by adding works to faith cancels out grace. But after we are saved by grace alone, we will produce works.

“We are...of them that believe to the saving of the soul” (Heb. 10:39).

(HCSB)
38 But My righteous one will live by faith;
and if he draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed,
but those who have faith and obtain life.

(YLT)
38and `the righteous by faith shall live,' and `if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,'
39and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.

(WYC)
38 For my just man liveth of faith; that if he withdraweth himself, he shall not please to my soul.
39 But we be not the sons of withdrawing away into perdition, but of faith into [the] getting of soul.

“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God” ( 1 John 5:1).
(HCSB)
Luke4:34 "Leave us alone! What do You have to do with us, Jesus— Nazarene? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!"

(YLT)
34saying, `Away, what -- to us and to thee, Jesus, O Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art -- the Holy One of God.'

(WYC)
34 and said [saying], Suffer, what to us and to thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us [to lose us]? I know thee, that thou art the holy of God.
