Salvation comes from reliance (Faith Through Belief Alone) upon the God supplied, sacrifice, Y'shua, through his Grace,for the forgiveness of our sins. That is what the whole counsel of God says. Belief is a frame of mind that initiates a desire to follow the God's way. That's salvation, pure and simple. <br /><br />Repentance and confession, are the first natural desires, of a True Believer, not requirements. They are the results of salvation of a True Believer, again, not requirements. <br /><br />Baptism is simply the first act of obedience. The First Fruits of a True Believer.<br /><br />Anything other than that, you are adding to what the Messiah did on the cross. Our acts cannot compare to what the Messiah did on the Cross.<br /><br />Regards,<br />KeithKeithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11254093786094787764noreply@blogger.com
