  • Do you have "saving faith"? Unfortunately, due to improper division of the scriptures and careless handling of the word of God, many people are left confused about the reality of their salvation and the security of their sonship. I hope this video helps clarify things and dispels confusion about this subject. God bless! - OD

    This one is big to me because of my own salvation path. When I finally acknowledged Him as Lord and Saviour over my eternal state I know He saved me. Living as a christian for almost 2 decades didn't save me. It wasn't until I placed my faith in Him, and not myself, that I was able to trust Him for salvation. Nothing about that was easy. It would have been easier to simply look at the actions of my life and say that I have fruit and therefore must be saved. God looks on the heart and mine was trusting in the wrong things. My salvation had nothing to do with me, because if it did, I would still be as lost as I ever was. He paid for it fully, and it took way to long for me to figure that out. Awesome video. Keep it up.

    All obedience to the Lord is a form of works.
    Faith is trusting in Him, this is what the Father requires from the sinner. We are to be paid for our works just as Jesus taught. But the gift of eternal life is from God and not of our works.
    I am amazed that pastors and teachers can still get confused over this? I obey and do works out of my love and desire to serve my Lord. But in no way am I where I need to be or even want to be as His servant. If I had to believe in a certain level of obedience to be assured of my salvation I along with every other Christian would never have any assurance!
    Keep the faith in our Lord and serve out of love!

      Acts 15 kjv
      7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
      8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
      9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
      10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
      11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

    Thanks for the teaching - I agree there are plenty of preachers who are misleading people with a Gospel that combines faith and works.
    It's dangerous as it's close to the truth.
    When Jesus came the first time He did so for Israel and offered them a kingdom which they subsequently rejected.
    He told them what was required to be a follower of Him while He was on earth in the flesh - sell everything and follow Him.
    That was of course before His crucifixion and the formation of the New Covenant (New Testament).
    Salvation is now only possible through faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work on the cross.
    Once you accept Jesus, the Holy Spirit will show you the way from there!

But my faith and trust remains in Jesus' blood. It's all in his blood in fact. Had he not shed his perfect blood, nobody could be saved.

    First off I totally think every word you’ve said is 100% on point and totally correct. And also were able to articulate it all in an accurate way that defines terms and also distinguishes the correct way to interpret believe and salvation and believing and discipleship.
    But I’ve got one genuine question I’ve never heard someone give a stable answer to. And maybe this could be the talking point of another video but in revelations where Jesus speaks of spitting some out of his mouth. Could you elaborate on once saved always saved and the simple belief in the gospel in correlation with said passages in revelations. Thanks brother and keep it coming with the biblical truths.

    Perfectly explained 👌 ❤.
    Those works truster's who are really trusting in themselves by their ongoing outward fruit bearing, obedience so-called, are NOT solely trusting in the BLOOD ATONEMENT for salvation.
    Where is the blood atonement in their proclamation and requirement for salvation?
    Either Jesus Christ alone through his blood atonement alone being shed on Calvary's cross and his resurrection on the 3rd day is enough for salvation; or we are all still in our sins without remedy for our sins and utterly hopeless.
    Biblical Salvation is in the person of Jesus Christ alone.
    He alone PAID for ALL sin.
    He said..."It IS FINISHED!" right before He gave up the ghost on Calvary's Cross.
    The sin debt has been paid in full! Nothing else needs to be nor can be added to this.
    Eh.. Not good enough, says these modern day Pharisees, Judiazers who say that true salvation only comes from obeying the law of God through outward fruit bearing and constant obedience (works) to really be saved.
    These people reject the blood atonement ALONE as the only payment for sin.
    They profess Christ, but in works deny Him.
    They are ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their OWN righteousness, and have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
    These folks are no different from any other religion in the world. They proclaim that one must DO and continue to DO in order to be saved.
    Jesus said himself in essence, It is DONE! FINISHED! Debt PAID IN FULL!
    Trust in Jesus Christ alone according to the scriptures; not in yourself nor even your trusting, but solely on Jesus Christ alone for salvation.
