Who Is Right?

If we could get to Heaven by the characteristics that are natural to us, God would never have said: “There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.(Romans 3:10–12)”

If we could obtain salvation through our own works or good deeds, God would not have said; ”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)”

If we could be saved by obeying the Ten Commandments, God would not have said: ”For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight (Romans 3:20)”

If we could purchase our own salvation, God would not have said: “Truly no man can ransom another, or give to God the price of his life. (Psalm 49:7)”

If we could improve our behavior or personality and thus be saved through our own efforts, God would not have said: “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked (Jeremiah 17:9)”

If salvation were, in any way to depend on ourselves, Jesus’ reply to His disciples’ question (“Who then can be saved?”) would not have been: “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” (Mark 10:26-27)

“All those who believe” are “justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:22-24)

Salvation is 100% dependent on Christ. Repent and Believe Now! Jesus saves....
