Lesson 3981

 Lesson (3981)(12-12-22)  1st John 3:23-24

    And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.”

    Today’s quote is a very important one in that it makes the point, very clearly, as to how to gain eternal salvation of the soul. 

    Therein, John said, referring to the commandment of God, “That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another”. It can’t be put any clearer than that. In order to receive rebirth of the spirit and eternal redemption from sin, one must ONLY obey that commandment. There are no other hoops that must be jumped through, such as water baptism, or, for that matter, any other “good work”. 

    Once a lost person accepts the fact that Jesus payed the price for ALL sin, that person is placed under the guardianship of the Holy Spirit, being WHOLLY JUSTIFIED for anything they do,  and CANNOT be removed from that eternal security. ~
