WHAT BAPTISTS BELIEVE…<\/strong>
\nAbout Salvation<\/strong><\/h2>\n

HUMAN BEINGS ARE:<\/strong><\/p>\n

SPECIAL<\/strong>
\nGenesis 1: 26-27
\nThen God said, \u201cLet us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.\u201d27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.<\/p>\n

Genesis 2: 7
\nthen the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.<\/p>\n

SINFUL<\/strong>
\nGenesis 3: 1-7
\nNow the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, \u201cDid God actually say, \u201d\u02dcYou shall not eat of any tree in the garden\u201d\u2122?\u201d 2 And the woman said to the serpent, \u201cWe may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, \u201d\u02dcYou shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.\u201d\u2122\u201d 4 But the serpent said to the woman, \u201cYou will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.\u201d 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.<\/p>\n

Romans 3: 23
\nfor all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,<\/p>\n

CAN BE SAVED<\/strong>
\n1 Peter 1: 18-19<\/p>\n

knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

SALVATION INVOLVES:<\/strong><\/p>\n

REDEMPTION<\/strong>
\nHebrews 9: 11-12
\nBut when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12 he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.<\/p>\n

2 Corinthians 5: 18
\nAll this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;<\/p>\n

REGENERATION<\/strong>
\nTitus 3: 4-5
\nBut when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,<\/p>\n

JUSTIFICATION<\/strong>
\nRomans 3: 21-26
\nBut now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it\u201d\u201d 22 the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.<\/p>\n

SANCTIFICATION<\/strong>
\nJohn 17: 17-19
\nSanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.<\/p>\n

2 Peter 3: 18
\nBut grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.<\/p>\n

GLORIFICATION<\/strong>
\nRomans 8: 30-31
\nAnd those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified. What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?<\/p>\n

Philippians 3: 20-21
\nBut our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.<\/p>\n

Ephesians 2: 8-10
\nFor by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
