WHAT MUST ONE DO TO BE SAVED?
 
HEAR THE WORD
 
Romans 10:17
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
 
Matthew 7:24-27
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
 
 
 
 
BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST
 
Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
 
Mark 16:15-16
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
 
Faith is necessary, BUT not Faith ONLY!
 
James 2:24 
Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
 
 
John 12:42-43
42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
 
James 2:19
Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
 
REPENT OF SINS
 
Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
 
Acts 17:30-31
30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
 
Luke 13: 3 & 5
3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
5  I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
 
 
 
CONFESS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD
 
MATTHEW 10:32-33
32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
 
Acts 8:36-37
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
 
Romans 10:9-10
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
 
 
BE BAPTIZED FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS
 
Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
 
Acts 22:16
And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
 
1 Peter 3:21
The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
 
Mark 16:15-16
15       And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16       He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
 
 
 
 
 
Matthew 28:18-19 (ASV)
18      And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth.
19       Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit:
 
Romans 6:3-5
3          Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4          Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5          For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
 
 
Galatians 3:27
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
