Jesus Saves

Jesus Saves

Mat 1:21 “And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins.”

Everything that God has for Christians is under the umbrella of “forgiveness of sins. Because our sins have been forgiven then we can have a complete and perfect salvation that covers our total being or life (body, souls, spirit and mind).

The most important thing about salvation is the fact that our sins have been forgiven. 1 John 2:2 and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world. Christ died on the cross to save us from sin, buried, and resurrected to give us eternal life. Jesus died for everyone and the only requirement for salvation is to believe.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Those who believe in Jesus and His gospel are saved and have eternal life.

What does salvation include or what all did Christ die for? Hebrews 10:39 But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul. When we believe in Christ then our souls are saved. God gives us peace, joy and love in our hearts as well as eternal life.

What else does salvation mean? Romans 6:6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him (Jesus). Romans 6:4 Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life (new nature). Our old nature was crucified on the Cross when Christ died and after Jesus was resurrected then He gave us a new nature that does not give in to sin but lives in the righteousness of God. Christians become new people.

What else does salvation have? Mat 9:2 then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.”

Mat 9:5 “For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’?

Mat 9:6 “But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”

Mat 9:7 and he arose and departed to his house. Salvation is not only our souls have been saved but our bodies also. When someone sins have been forgiven then their body is healed also. 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed. Christ death on the cross gives us healing for our bodies.

Salvation includes our spirits. Rom 8:16 The Spirit Himself (Holy Spirit) bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God. Even our spirits are renewed because of the work of the Cross. Jesus saves!

The salvation of God touches our minds also. Ephesians 4:23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, Ephesians 4:24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. 1 Corinthians 2:16 we have the mind of Christ. We think like Christ when we become Christians and that is why we read and live by God’s written Word.

Salvation includes freedom from curses and blessings from God. Gal 3:13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”,

Gal 3:14 so that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. In Abraham’s day, he was the richest man on the face of the earth and he had great health living to about 120 years. That is a good blessing to have.

Salvation gives us freedom from the devil’s workings in our lives. Col 2:14 and having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us, And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.

Col 2:15 having disarmed principalities and powers (evil spirits), He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it (the cross). Hebrews 2:14 that through death He (Jesus) might destroy him who had the power of death, that is: the devil.
