What is required of me?

1. It is God's will that all men should turn to Him:  2 Peter 3: 9; Ezek. 33: 11; Acts 3: 19

2. We must have faith, and be willing to seek out the Truth:  Heb. 11: 6; Psa. 119: 9

3. We must be willing to hear God's Word:  Rev 2: 7; Mt. 11: 15; Rom. 10: 17

4. True Faith will cause us to render obedience to God's will: Eph. 2: 10; Jn. 14: 15; 1 Jn. 5: 3; Rev. 22: 14

5. We have to take an active part in achieving salvation: Jn. 6: 27; Phil. 2: 12-15

6. So then, what are these acts of obedience, steps of salvation, that are an active proof of our faith?

a. As already mentioned, we must first hear God's Word - Rom. 10: 17

b. We must believe - Acts 10: 43; 16: 31

c. True belief will produce repentance - Acts 2: 38; 3:19

d. This change of life & attitude will produce in us the desire to confess Jesus as Lord - Rom. 10: 9-10; Matt. 16: 15-16

e. As an act of humility, faith and obedience we will immediately submit to baptism Acts 22: 16; Gal. 3: 27; 2 Cor. 5: 17; 1 Pet. 3:21; Acts 2: 38.

f. Now, as "New Creatures" it will be our desire to remain faithful at all times, rising to walk a New Life (Rom. 6: 4).  We can read of many who were faithful to God in Heb. chapter 11, the book of Revelation, chapter 2 and verse 10 teaches us that God expects us to remain faithful, even unto the point of death.

   If you desire further teaching or clarification of what God's Will is for us or if we can in any way help you in your quest for the Truth, we would welcome that opportunity.
