Save YOURSELVES (because Jesus Can't)

Therefore, let all the house of Israel know for a surety, that God hath [a]made him both Lord, and Christ, this Jesus, I say, whom ye have crucified.
37 Now when they heard it, they were pricked in their hearts, and said unto Peter and the other Apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
38 [b]Then Peter said unto them, Amend your lives, 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.
39 For the [c]promise is made unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
40 [d]And with many other words he besought and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this [froward] generation.    Acts 2:35-40   1599 Geneva Bible (GNV)



Satan has deceived the world, Jesus will NOT save the world!


However, if the anyone in the world Is saved, it will be through Jesus Christ! (John 3:17)

From the very beginning the choice was given to Adam to eat of every tree, including the tree of life except only don't deal with the tree of knowledge of good and evil. The choice was again a presented at the nation of Israel's inception, When life and death were both put on the table, and the freedom to make the choice was afforded us. (Deuteronomy 30:14-15)


When the Apostle Peter was preaching, during the Day of Pentecost he give very simple instructions to those who feel guilty because of the death of Christ:   "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. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation." Acts 2:38-40

With soo many doctrines and denominations floating around (over 30,000), how could one possibly know which part of the denomination is inconsistent?


"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." ‭2 Timothy‬ ‭2‬:‭15‬

It is through the Word that you save YOURSELF. Jesus is the Word and through him you have the power to save YOURSELF!



How?

The 10 Commandments of course...

"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city." Revelation ‭22‬:‭14‬ 

The same commandments spoken in Deuteronomy 30. So that you may have a right to eat of the tree of life thru which you are saved.

May the Lord add a blessing to the doing of His Commandments, in Jesus name. 

LOCKSMIF... Knowledge is the key 

— For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬ KJV)
— And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace. (‭Luke‬ ‭7‬:‭50‬ KJV)

— And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked. (‭Acts‬ ‭14‬:‭8-10‬ KJV)
 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. (‭James‬ ‭5‬:‭14-15‬ KJV)
