Join me as I do a refresh of basic doctrinal topics of the gospel, these are personal study notes. KJV is used for Bible references. I've added an audio narration for convenience.

We had earlier learned about the other facts in parts 1 and part 2 Today, we learn about one more fact a saved person most certainly believes.

Fact number 5: Jesus Christ will save all those who trust Him and Him alone as their Saviour and Lord

John 3:16. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

To understand Fact number 5, we will study 15 salvation promises that are found in the new testament. These are conditional promises which means that if the sinner does something, then God promises to do something. In other words, before God will fulfill the promise, the sinner must fulfill the condition. As soon as the sinner does what he is supposed to do, then God will surely keep His promise. Don't forget that these are promises given to us by God who cannot lie. (Titus 1:2. In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began).

As we study these 15 salvation promises, we want to be looking for two things:

  • First, we want to see what is the sinner's responsibility? This is what the jailer wanted to know in Acts 16:30 when he cried out, "What must I do to be saved?"
  • Second, we want to see what God promises to do for the sinner when the sinner responds in the right way.
