So as long as I believe in Jesus Christ as God I get to go to heaven? Thats it, thats all I have to do? I dont have to be a good person or care about anyone but myself because all that matters is that I believe and I get rewarded?
@Farf420 When you become born again you will desire to follow Jesus and HIs teachings. Would you not be grateful for such a great gift of eternal life and spared from eternal hell? JEsus will renew your mind, give you a new heart and desire 2 please God. This is why we are told to test ourselves to see if we are in the faith. Works is separate from salvation. To recieve salvation is thru FAITH in Jesus alone. Salvation is RECIEVED not ACHIEVED. Even our faith is given to us by God and is a gift.
Hebrews 11:1 Is such a powerful argument of philosophy! Most all people have a "faith" . Faith in itself is a testimony toward something and that something is God. So then the battle is God's to keep the deceiver away. Great preaching! We are the body of the church and I believe God has endowed us with you tube to use our strengths to do our job as parts of that body.
@MereChristianLogic Yes Brother...I am very thankful for youtube. I am not able to travel to far away places to share the good news but through this modern technology it is possible. And even after I leave this world and go to glory, the video messages will continue telling the love story of our great SAVIOR/GOD...CHRIST JESUS.

Faith is an amazing thing. Majority of learned scholars cannot wrap their minds around faith in Christ, yet a 5 year old can. It would be humerous if it were not so tragic.
I believe He gives us our faith, it is the gift of faith. Christ has become all things for us. None seek after God, or can come to Christ unless God draws them, so I really believe that He caused me to believe, predestined me before the foundations of the world in Christ, to come to the knowledge of Him, and it is all by faith. Everything apart from faith is sin. I am born again, crucified with Christ, so no longer I but Christ. Thanks
@Richucis So you believe in the Calvinist view of predestination? God decided beforehand that you would believe in him and that others would not believe in him and be tortured forever? So lets say hypothetically I have decided with my wife that we shall have 5 kids. The 1st & 5th kid we will treat with love and provide for all their needs and wants. The 2nd, 3rd & 4th kid we will lock in the basement and torture them in the most horrible ways imaginable. Would we make good parents?
Thank God....we are justified by Grace through Faith....and salvation is not dependent on what we do....but whom we have trusted in...Jesus our Savior !!
Romans 11: Faith comes by hearing, and hearing comes from the Word of God....
Romans 5: We are made Righteous by Christ's obedience....and not on ours..
Amen! 'If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son....And this is the record that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son' (1Jn.5:7,11)
Amen! God bless you Brother. This needs to be preached often so that Christians both new and seasoned will be reminded of Who Christ is and what He has done and not of ourselves lest any man should boast; But what our Blessed Savior, Redeemer and Supreme Sacrificer did! Thank you Blessed Most Precious Jesus Christ!!!
It's so simple yet so many ideas complicate what is plain....FAITH...

@Farf420 If you believe that the only reason you are going to heaven is because JESUS died for your sins then YES...THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO DO!

@dpaul3614 Amen...thankfully Jesus made salvation so simple that even a little child can understand that it is a "gift".
And Jesus made it so easy that anyone can receive it, through "faith".
