SECTION 2: GOOD NEWS / SACRIFICE: GOD SACRIFICED HIMSELF FOR US TO PAY FOR OUR SINS SO THAT WE CAN BE WITH GOD IN HEAVEN ETERNALLY
1. God Loves Us And He Wants Us To Know The Truth
1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Hebrews 9:26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
10. The Story Of Jesus
* Jesus is God who lived up in heaven but He came down here on earth and transformed himself into a man like us with a mission to sacrifice himself to save mankind. He lived for 33 1/2 years without comitting any sin.
Then, there were certain people who framed Him on phony charges and they crucified Him. He died on the cross, was buried and 3 days later, He raised Himself from the dead. Proving He is God and then He went back up to heaven. Now, He is in heaven.
11. Why Did God Go Through All This “Bloody” Mess For Us?
* It's because remember our sin is the problem why we can't go to Heaven right? The only thing that can wash away our sin is God’s own blood (the blood of Jesus).
SECTION 3: SALVATION HAS TO DO WITH BLOOD ATONEMENT
1. The Blood Jesus Shed Is For The Anonement Of Our Sins
Romans 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Wrong Teaching
* This verse says "redemption through his blood"
* The modern bible versions removed “through his blood”
a. Modern Bible Versions Corrupt The Word Of God
[ESV] Colossians 1:14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
[NIV] Colossians 1:14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
[RSV] Colossians 1:14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
5. We Are Redeemed By The Precious Blood Of Jesus Christ
1 Peter 1:18-19 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
6. Jesus Suffered So That His Blood Can Sactify Us
Hebrews 13:12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate
SECTION 4: SALVATION HAS TO DO WITH BELIEVING (BY FAITH)
* Jesus did everything for us in our place. All we need to do is by faith, trust and believe in His finished work
1. Salvation Is By Believing
Acts 16:30-31 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house
2. Whosoever Believe In Jesus Shall Be Saved And Have Eternal Life
John 3:15-18, 36 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life"
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.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God.
36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
3. Whosoever Believeth In Jesus Shall Never Die
John 11:25-26 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
SECTION 5: SALVATION HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR GOOD WORKS
* There is nothing we can do to work our way to heaven
1. We Are Not Saved By Our Good Works. There Is Nothing We Can Do That Can Save Us
* Example: Water baptism, church attendance, doing good works cannot save us
2. Salvation Is By Grace Through Faith, Not Works (Its A Gift From God)
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
3. Grace Is Grace, Works Is Works (Cannot Mix Them Together)
Romans 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
4. No Works, Faith Is Counted Righteous
Romans 4:4-5 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness
5. Justified By Faith, Not Of Works Paul Repeats 3 Times
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
6. Saved Not By Works, Its By His Mercy
Titus 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
SECTION 6: WHAT DOES GOD SAY ABOUT PEOPLE WHO TRY TO BE RIGHTEOUS BY DOING GOOD WORKS HOPING TO EARN THEIR PLACE IN HEAVEN
1. Ignorant People Going About To Establishing Their Own Righteousness, They Are Ignorant Of God's Righteousness
Romans 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
2. There Is None Righteous
Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
3. All Our Righteousness Are As Filthy Rags In God's Eyes
Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
4. Christ Is The End Of The Law For Righteousness
Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
SECTION 7: HOW TO GET SAVED? WE NEED TO HEAR, BELIEVE AND TRUST THE GOSPEL

Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
2. What Is The Gospel?: The Gospel Is About The Death, Buriel And Resurrection Of Christ (His Blood Atonement For Our Sins)
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
a. There Are 5 Points In The Gospel
(i) How Christ Died
(ii) For Our Sins
(iii) Was Buried
(iv) Rose Again
(v) According To The Scriptures
* The gospel is Jesus’s death, buriel and resurrection (Its about the blood atonement of Christ for our sins that saves us)
* The gospel is the pillar of the Christian faith and the way of salvation and eternal life.
* The gospel is WHAT JESUS CHRIST DID FOR HUMANKIND TO SOLVE THEIR SIN PROBLEM SO THAT THEY CAN HAVE ETERNAL LIFE TO BE WITH GOD IN HEAVEN
* The keyword is "HOW CHRIST DIED"
* Jesus died in a bloody manner on a bloody cross and He shed His blood so that His blood is able to wash away all our sins. He became the blood sacrifice for our sins
* Our gospel is all about "WHAT GOD DID FOR US"
* Our gospel is "THE DID GOSPEL"
* A person is only saved by BELIEVING in the finished work of Jesus Christ, when He shed His Precious Blood for our sins.
* The apostate gospel is "THE DO GOSPEL" : One needs to do something to get saved
* If we don't preach the blood, have we even preached the gospel?
* If we don’t hear the blood, have we even heard the gospel?
3. The Blood Jesus Shed Is For The Anonement Of Our Sins
Romans 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
4. To Be Saved, The Bible Teaches That Salvation Is By Faith Without Works
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
5. Faith In What? Faith In God’s Blood (Jesus’s Blood)
Romans 3:25-28 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
* Propitiation means the act of appeasing wrath
* Noticed the verse: “faith in his blood”: the object of faith is God’s blood (Jesus’ blood)
* Salvation is by faith in the blood atonement of Jesus Christ.
* To be justified, or saved, a person's faith must be wholly in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. This declares God the Just one. When a sinner is saved, he cannot boast about himself or his works. He'll only brag upon Jesus who saved him from his sins!
* Sadly, in our modern age of apostasy, there are very few who claim to be Christians that ever preach about the blood of Jesus, and the need to trust in it for salvation. But the simple Bible truth is, ONE CANNOT EVEN BE A CHRISTIAN UNLESS ONE IS TRUSTING ONLY IN THE SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!
Note:
* The wrath of God abides on sinners, those who aren't saved
* Hell is the wrath of God. Hell is a place where God pours out His wrath on a sinner for all eternity. That's why we need to be saved, because God is angry with sinners and God hates sin. We have to come to Him, Jesus who paid for our sins
* Jesus Christ suffered the wrath of God for the sins of the whole world. God the Father poured out his wrath on Jesus Christ when He took upon Himself the sins of the whole world. Jesus Christ died in our place for our sins.
* Our sins are paid for. Why do we need to still go to hell and pay for it? All that needs to take place is trust the blood, then that forgiveness is ours through the atonement of Christ. So we don't have to go to hell. We have eternal redemption through the one sacrifice of Jesus Christ
6. To Get Saved, We Need To Repent By Being Sorry For Who We Are (A Lost Sinner On Our Way To Hell)
2 Corinthians 7:9-10 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
* Godly sorrow means to be sorry for who we are (a lost sinner on our way to hell)
* Repent by a change of mind realising we are nothing but a lost sinner on our way to hell and only through God's righteousness (Jesus finished work) can we be saved
7. To Get Saved, We Need To Believe Whole Heartedly What God Has Done For Us: His Death Buriel Ressurection, His Blood Is The Only Thing That Can Wash Away Our Sins And Then Say It To God
Romans 10:9-10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
8. How To Say It To God? (Believe Whole Heartedly Then Say It)
Dear God,
I repent as a sinner.
I believe Jesus is God.
Who died, buried and resurrected so His blood can wash away my sins.
So, I only trust in the blood alone to save me and not my good works. Save me from Hell.
In Jesus name I pray. Amen
Note: Repeating this prayer is not what saves but by believing whole heartedly is what saves
