THE BIBLE WAY TO BE SAVED - FAITH AND TRUST IN THE PRECIOUS SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!




 I have posted several articles to this site on the Blood of Jesus Christ and the necessity of trusting in it for the remission and forgiveness of sins. But this bears repeating! It can never be stressed strongly enough, especially when most churches have turned away from preaching THE BLOOD and embraced some form of the modern Bloodless Gospel, which is powerless to save. If you have been told that you can be saved by:

  • Reciting a typical sinner's prayer
  • Following the Romans Road to Salvation
  • Following the ABC's of Salvation
  • Asking the Lord into your heart
  • Calling on the Name of the Lord
  • Repenting of or confessing your sins

...Or by any other method than TRUSTING IN THE BLOOD, then you have been lied to, as well-meaning as your church or your pastor or your friend or family member may be. 

I will keep this post short and to the point. The simple, scriptural fact is that... THERE IS NO SALVATION OUTSIDE OF FAITH AND TRUST IN THE PRECIOUS SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST! If you are not trusting in THE BLOOD then you are not saved, plain and simple. Scripture directly contradicts the traditions of men listed above. 

The Church has done many thousands and perhaps millions of people a grave disservice over the last several decades by teaching methods of salvation that are completely foreign to Scripture. This has resulted in the tragic creation of many false converts who have left the faith believing that they were once Christians, and these people have become enemies of the cross of Christ and they are speaking out against the Bible and the Christian faith in droves on the Internet and in print. These people proudly wear the label of "Ex-Christian", and many of them now vocally espouse hardcore atheism and express a vitriolic hatred for God, His Word, and His Church. These people never truly knew the Lord Jesus, and because they were presented with and bought into a false, bloodless gospel, they may never recover from their hardened hearts and experience the joy of truly knowing the Lord through trusting in His Blood. Many thousands and perhaps millions of people are going to miss out on the wonders and joys of Heaven and the joy of knowing Jesus Christ because the Church failed them at the most basic, fundamental level. The Church -- the very people who should know how to present the Gospel clearly -- failed these people in an unspeakably tragic way. 

We must never lose sight of the fact, when dealing with these false converts who have turned against the Lord, that Jesus loves them passionately and He wants them to experience the joy of true salvation. We must treat these people with great compassion and empathy, with the understanding that they have been lied to and failed by and betrayed by the very people who should have known how to share the true biblical Gospel with them effectively. 

The Church has to do better. We have to be better. We MUST return to preaching salvation by faith and trust in the precious shed blood of Jesus Christ! Scripture makes it plain that trusting in the Blood of Jesus for the remission and forgiveness of our sins in the ONLY way to be saved! And it is our job to preach what the Word of God plainly teaches, not the traditions of men that directly contradict the plain teachings of Scripture. 

The following is copied and pasted from a previously posted article.

The following are Scripture references for the Blood of Jesus, and sadly you will rarely if ever hear them preached in most churches today. Most churches have unfortunately turned away from preaching the Blood of Jesus and are offering some version of the modern Bloodless Gospel that is powerless to save. Please don't fall for the message that you can be saved by simply reciting a prayer or by asking the Lord into your heart or repenting of your sins or confessing your sins or calling upon the Name of the Lord or anything other than what Scripture plainly teaches, which is TRUSTING IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION AND FORGIVENESS OF YOUR SINS. 

For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. (Leviticus 17:11)


Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; (Romans 3:25)


Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. (Romans 5:9)


In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; (Ephesians 1:7)


In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: (Colossians 1:14)


Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. (Hebrews 9:12)


And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Hebrews 9:22)


Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. (Hebrews 13:12)

But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: (1 Peter 1:19)


But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)


And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, (Revelation 1:5)


And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; (Revelation 5:9)


THERE IS NO SALVATION OUTSIDE OF FAITH AND TRUST IN THE PRECIOUS SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!
