Jesus Christ Is The Only Way Of Salvation

Jesus Christ Is The Only Way Of Salvation LIKE + SHARE if you believe JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN & GOD THE FATHER! See 'About' pag The True gospel is the good news that God saves sinners.

Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ. Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. (psalms 51:5)

Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this

way death came to all men, because all sinned. (Romans 5:12)

There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. (Romans 3:23)

There is no one righteous, not even one; there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one. Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. (Romans 3:10-12,19)

Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9)

As a result of the fall of man in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:6), every part of man - his mind, will, emotions and flesh - have been corrupted by sin. Because of man’s sinful nature, he does not and cannot seek God. Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.(Acts 2:38)

That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. (Romans 10:9)

In the Christian doctrine of salvation, we are saved from “wrath,” that is, from God’s judgment of sin (Romans 5:9; 1 Thessalonians 5:9). Our sin has separated us from God, and the consequence of sin is eternal death in hell (Romans 6:23). God has paid the penalty for our sins laid on Jesus christ at cross, so we will not have to suffer the second death which is hell, if we accept the free gift of love (Revelation 20:14)

Here is how you can receive Jesus Christ and the free gift of Salvation:
1. Admit you are a sinner in need of a Savior.
2. Be willing to repent and turn from sin.
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried and rose from the dead.
4. Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ to come in your heart and take control of your life.
5. Find a Bible believing church & receive Baptism fully immersed into water to be part of Christ's death, burial and resurrection & put on Christ to stand against devil's schemes. (And this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. 1 Peter 3:21)
6. Live faithfully as per the will of God & bring holiness (our thoughts, words, and actions to be just like Jesus) to every part of our life by the power of Holy spirit.
7. Worship God in spirit and in truth & seek fellowship with other followers of Jesus.(John 4:24, Acts 2:41)
8. Tell someone about Jesus christ & save a person from the consequences of sin & death.(Acts 1:8, Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:15, Romans 8:1)

When complete above Steps 1,2,3,4 you become born again & part of the family of God, saved from sin and death. Steps 5,6,7 will help maintain your relationship with the Lord and live a victorious life. A suggested prayer (try to use your own words from the heart & confess with your mouth):
GOD Almighty, I am sorry for my sins and the life that I have lived. I need your forgiveness of sins what I have done against you! I believe that your Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross and died for my sins. I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead. Lord Jesus, please forgive my all sins if it is small, big or reddish blood in nature & purify me completely by the blood of you. I hereby surrender my life & I accept Jesus christ is my lord & savior from now. Right now I ask Jesus christ to come into my heart. Thank you for your unlimited grace! Thank you for giving me eternal life & my name written in the Book of Life at heaven. Thank you for giving me Holy spirit to live faithfully until my death. In Jesus mighty name, Amen. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8–9)

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation: the old has gone, the new has come!" (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)

Anyone who receive Jesus christ will transformed into a new life with love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. They could resist & overcome all evil spiritual forces, sins, temptations like sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, or**es by the power of Holy spirit.

Many read the Bible… but few rightly divide it.

D. Current Dispensation – Grace age

🔑 4️⃣ PROMISES PROPERLY PERCIEVED
(Not All Promises Are For You)

📖 Romans 9:4
📖 2 Corinthians 1:20
A. Israel’s Promises – Land, kingdom
B. Body’s Promises – Heavenly blessings
C. Prophetic Context – Earth focus
D. Pauline Context – Grace focus

🔑 5️⃣ PERFORMANCE VS POSITION DISTINGUISHED
(Law vs Grace)

📖 Romans 6:14
📖 Galatians 2:16
A. Law Demands – Do and live
B. Grace Delivers – Believe and live
C. Works System – Israel under law
D. Faith System – Body under grace

🎺 WHEN THE TRUMP OF GOD SOUNDS

🔰 INTRODUCTION

🔥 The Trumpet in this passage is not Israel’s feast trumpets, not a judgment trumpet, and not Revelation’s trumpet.
👉 It is “the trump of God”—a unique call for the Body of Christ (church) alone.

This event belongs to the Dispensation of Grace, revealed to apostle Paul by revelation (1 Cor. 15:51). When it sounds, everything changes in a moment.

🔤 5 PREACHING POINTS (T-R-U-M-P)

1️⃣ T — TRUMPET SUMMONS THE BODY
The trumpet is a calling sound, not a warning. Only the body of Christ (church) hears the calling sound.

Trumpet of God – A divine summons, not angelic. (1 Thess. 4:16)
Timing Sudden – In a moment of twinkling eye, without advance signs. (1 Cor. 15:52)
Targeted Specifically – The Body of Christ (church). (Eph. 1:22–23)
Truth Revealed – A mystery once hidden. (1 Cor. 15:51)
Transition Triggered – From earth to glory. (Phil. 3:20)
➡️ This Trumpet is for believers in Christ only.

2️⃣ R — RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD IN CHRIST
Physical death does not stop God’s promise.

Raised First – Dead in Christ rise before the living believers. (1 Thess. 4:16)
Redeemed Bodies – Incorruptible and glorified body like resurrected Jesus. (1 Cor. 15:42–44)
Resurrection Certain – Guaranteed by Christ’s resurrection. (1 Cor. 15:20)
Rest Concluded – Sleep in Christ ends. (1 Thess. 4:14)
Reunion Assured – United again with loved ones. (1 Thess. 4:17)
➡️ The grave loses its victory. No more death, pain, sickness or sorrows.

3️⃣ U — UPWARD CATCHING AWAY
The word Rapture means caught up supernaturally by God before the wrath of God falls on earth (7 year tribulation).

Upward Motion – Caught up, not called down (1 Thess. 4:17)
Unexpected Moment – Like a thief (1 Thess. 5:2)
Unified Movement – All believers in the world together (1 Cor. 15:51)
Unchanged Identity – Still ourselves, but glorified body (Phil. 3:21)
Unending Hope – Blessed hope for church fulfilled (Titus 2:13)
➡️ Grace ends with glory, not wrath.

4️⃣ M — MEETING THE LORD IN THE AIR
Only the body of Christ meets Jesus in the air. Every eye sees Jesus is the glorious Second Coming of Christ, not Rapture. Both returns of Jesus are separate events.

Meeting Mid-Air – Not on the Mount of Olives, Jerusalem (1 Thess. 4:17)
Mediator Welcomed – Jesus Himself receives us (John 14:3)
Manifestation of Sons – Revealed with Christ (Col. 3:4)
Marvelous Communion – Face-to-face fellowship (1 John 3:2)
➡️ We meet Him before judgment falls on earth.

5️⃣ P — PARADISE WITH CHRIST FOREVER
The Rapture leads to eternal security.

Place Prepared – Heavenly home promised (John 14:2)
Position Perfected – Glorified with Christ (Rom. 8:17)
Protection Complete – Delivered from the wrath of God (1 Thess. 1:10)
Purpose Fulfilled – Reigning with Christ (2 Tim. 2:12)
Permanence Guaranteed – Ever with the Lord (1 Thess. 4:17)
➡️ The Church’s future is heavenly, not earthly.

🧾 CONCLUSION
​One trumpet.
One moment.
One eternal separation.
Jesus is coming for his blood bought church first, then for Israel.
Don’t be left behind.
👉 The question is not if the trumpet will sound—
The question is are you in Christ?

📣 CALL TO ACTION

🔊 Believe the Gospel of Grace (1 Cor. 15:1–4)
🕊️ Be Saved by Grace Alone (Eph. 2:8–9)
⬆️ Be Ready for the Rapture (Titus 2:13)
📖 Be Rooted in Right Division (2 Tim. 2:15)
🔥 Be a Watchful Witness (2 Cor. 5:20)
👉 Believe now—before the trumpet sounds.

1️⃣ 📯 Trumpet Summons
2️⃣ ⚰️ Resurrection Secured

📖 INTRODUCTION

The Bible reveals two distinct programs:
🔥 The Mystery Program — the Body of Christ (church) revealed through the apostle Paul, Salvation of gentiles, Rapture of church, Judgement seat of Christ, Crowns & rewards in heaven.
💥 The Prophetic Program — Israel, 7 year Tribulation, Glorious second coming of Christ on Mount Olives Jerusalem, Millennium Kingdom of Christ, White throne Judgement for unbelievers, New heaven and new earth in New Jerusalem.

Confusion comes when people mix these programs.

🌍✨ GOD’S PLAN FOR THE EARTH VS. HEAVEN

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 📖 Genesis 1:1 (KJV)

Rightly Dividing the Prophetic Program and the Mystery Program
📖 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV)

📖 INTRODUCTION

The Bible reveals one God with two distinct programs, not two plans of salvation, but two spheres of purpose:
🌍 Earthly Kingdom → Promised, prophesied, and prepared for Israel.
🌠 Heavenly Calling → Hidden, revealed, and fulfilled in the Body of Christ (church).

Failure to rightly divide leads to confusion, contradiction, and misplaced hope.
📖 “Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.” — Acts 15:18

🔤 EIGHT TRUTHS OF GOD’S TWO-FOLD PLAN

1️⃣ DISTINCTION OF DOMAINS
(Earthly Realm vs. Heavenly Realm)
📖 “In my Father’s house are many mansions…” — John 14:2
Explanation:
God designed two realms, each with a distinct people and purpose.

Sub-points:
Designed Earth for Israel’s kingdom (Psalm 37:29)
Designated Heaven for the church (Body of Christ) (Philippians 3:20)
Distinguished Callings (Romans 11:29)
Declared Purposes (Ephesians 1:10)

2️⃣ PROMISES PROCLAIMED
(Prophetic vs. Mystery Promises)
📖 “Which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets…” — Acts 3:21
Explanation:
Israel’s program was spoken since the world began; the Church’s program was kept secret.

Sub-points:
Prophesied Kingdom to Israel (Luke 1:70)
Promised Land on earth (Genesis 12:7)
Previously Hidden Mystery (Romans 16:25)
Pauline Revelation of heavenly blessings (Eph. 3:3–6)

3️⃣ CITIZENSHIP CONTRASTED
(Earthly Nation vs. Heavenly Body)
📖 “For our conversation is in heaven…” — Philippians 3:20
Explanation:
God has two distinct peoples, never merged or replaced.

Sub-points:
Chosen Nation Israel (Deut. 7:6)
Called-out Body the Church (1 Cor. 12:27)
Covenant People on earth (Jer. 31:35–36)
Corporate Body in Christ (Eph. 1:22–23)

4️⃣ THRONES CONTRASTED
(Davidic Throne vs. Heavenly Exaltation)
📖 “He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever…” — Luke 1:33
Explanation:
Christ rules on earth as King of Kings and in heaven as Head of the Church.

Sub-points:
Throne of David in Jerusalem (Isa. 9:7)
Triumphant Return to earth (Zech. 14:4)
Headship in Heaven (Col. 1:18)
Heavenly Seating of the Church (Eph. 2:6)

5️⃣ HOPE HIGHLIGHTED
(Hope of Israel vs. Hope of the Church)
📖 “And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise…” — Acts 26:6
Explanation:
Hope must match the calling—or confusion follows.

Sub-points:
Hope of the Land (Jer. 23:5–6)
Hope of Restoration (Acts 3:19–21)
Hope in Heaven (Col. 1:5)
Hope of Glory (Titus 2:13)

6️⃣ REVELATION RIGHTLY DIVIDED
(Spoken Since vs. Secret Since)
📖 “Which in other ages was not made known…” — Ephesians 3:5
Explanation:
What God revealed before differs from what He revealed through apostle Paul. It is hidden before Paul. Jesus did not reveal the Salvation of gentiles (non-Jews), Mystery of body of Christ & Rapture during his earthly ministry.

Sub-points:
Revealed to Prophets (Amos 3:7)
Reserved Mystery (Eph. 3:9)
Recorded in Scripture (Rom. 16:26)
Rightly Divided Truth (2 Tim. 2:15)

7️⃣ DESTINY DETERMINED
(Earth Renewed vs. Heaven Filled)
📖 “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men…” — Revelation 21:3
Explanation:
God restores both realms, but assigns them to different peoples.

Sub-points:
Renewed Earth for Israel (Isa. 65:17)
Reigning Messiah on earth (Rev. 20:6)
Raptured Body to heaven (1 Thess. 4:16–17)
Ruling in Heavenly Places (Eph. 2:7)

8️⃣ GLORY GOD-CENTERED
(One God, Two Programs, One Purpose)
📖 “To the intent that now unto the principalities… might be known…” — Ephesians 3:10
Explanation:
God’s ultimate aim is His glory, displayed in heaven and earth.

Sub-points:
Glorified Son (Col. 1:18)
Gathered All Things (Eph. 1:10)
Government Manifested (Rev. 11:15)
Grace Magnified (Eph. 2:7)

🧾 CONCLUSION

God is not confused—and His Word is not contradictory.
Confusion only comes when Israel’s promises are stolen and the Church’s calling is diluted.
📖 “Hath God cast away his people? God forbid.” — Romans 11:1
➡️ One Bible
➡️ One Savior
➡️ Two distinct programs
➡️ One eternal glory

✨ RAPTURE IS FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST ONLY

📖 “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” — 1 Thessalonians 4:16–18 (KJV)

🎤 INTRODUCTION

1. The Rapture/caught up in heaven is not a general resurrection.
2. It is not promised to Israel.
3. It is not taught in the Gospels.
4. Jesus does not reveal the mystery of Rapture.
5. Heavenly citizenship is promised to the body of Christ alone.
6. Body of Christ transformed like the glorious image of Christ.
7. Jesus died for our sins, buried rose from the dead & ascended to the right hand of Father, so the body of Christ too ascended at the day of Rapture.
8. Rapture of church and Glorious second coming of Christ are different events.
9. Heirs with God and co-heirs with Christ is promised to body of Christ alone.
10. Crowns and rewards promised to body of Christ alone.

The Rapture of church (caught up in heaven) is a mystery revealed to apostle Paul, and it belongs exclusively to the Body of Christ (church) in this present Dispensation of Grace (Eph. 3:1–6).

If we fail to rightly divide, we will confuse the Rapture of church with the Glorious Second Coming of Christ on Mount Olives, Jerusalem and rob believers of their blessed hope.
