Salvation: A Legal Gift. by marcopollo(m): 7:31am On Feb 14, 2016 |
✞ Salvation: A Legal Gift. . No one is accepted by God based on their ‘’personal merit’’ before or after salvation. . Your behavior, "good or bad deeds’', play no part in securing nor maintaining your salvation as salvation is a *free gift* of God. . Does this mean it is “ok" to sin? Absolutely NOT!!! Sin is never a casual matter with God. It is an assault to his holiness. . What it means is that salvation is a *free gift* from God, apart from our behavior or it would NOT be a gift at all. It would be merely an arrangement. ............................................................................ *Dictionary: Legal Gift: A voluntary transfer of property from one individual to another, made gratuitously-[without charge] to the recipient without conditions . The individual who makes the gift is known as the donor, and the individual to whom the gift is made is called the donee. . Once the gift is received and takes possession of the gift the donor has *no further legal claim on the item* by donor. . It can NOT be legally taken back by the donor from the donee. It is ILLEGAL for the donor to later take the "GIFT" away from donee. ........................................................................... ......... Eph2.8 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the *GIFT* of God:” Rom.6:23 KJV, "... the *GIFT* of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." . The Bible gives us instruction on how to receive the GIFT of salvation in Ro.1:16, and the *Gospel of Our Salvation* is found here, 1Cor.15:1-4. . Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of *the gospel* of Christ: for it is the power of God to *SALVATION* to every one that *believeth*-[trust-in]...” . * The Gospel of Our Salvation * 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 "“Christ died for our sins. … He was buried. … He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures.” . Salvation is a free and unmerited 'gift' from God, granted *through faith* in Jesus, upon believing he shed his blood and died on a cross to pay for our sins and rose from the tomb to provide us with everlasting life, all sin forgiven, indwelt by the Holy Spirit and heaven bound. . Will you trust him and what he did to save you now? . ➜ Please 'SHARE' for the lost on any social media if you agree. |

I love people with intellect but show me a person who has the REVELATION OF CHRIST BEHIND THE GRACE, then I go salute. Grab grace! 1 Like |
