What about salvation?
People, salvation is free gift. I am proud to say that I am a Christian, I believe in God, the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. I just want to say that I am surely saved because I believe that by the blood of Jesus who died on the cross at the Calvary. I believe that "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." (II Timothy 3:16-17). Many people out there believe that they have to do good work or good deeds to be saved, but that is wrong. You don't do good work to be saved. John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." Hmm... so just believe in Him Jesus Christ and you're are saved? uhh... yes, that's right. That's straight forward, very simple, and Scripture is God-breathed, so just do it, believe in Jesus and you'll be saved. However, what about the good work and stuff? Well, earlier I quoted from the Scripture "so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work". So that means now when you are saved by believing in Jesus, you are now called the children of God, and the children of God are made to do good work, that's how it works. Therefore, if you want to be saved, you don't do good work, just believe in Jesus; but you have to do good work because you're now believer of Jesus. A lot of people come up with questions that are impossible to answer such as who created God? well, it's impossible to answer because God is not finite, he's infinite, that's the property of God. I don't even know how to answer that question although I am a Christian, I just believe there is God and I feel great about it. You can try to answer to that question but then you'll get lost and there is no complete answer. For example you can say ok God's Father created God, then who created God's Father? you just gonna make an infinite loop of those questions, you know what I mean? Well then, don't try to question God, because He is God. As human, we need to realize that we are human, so just do it. Just believe that there is God and you need to serve Him and glorify him because God created you and I. If you still want to argue about those complicated questions, then I have a question for you, "Can you tell me where does wisdom come from? and what does it look like?" So yeah...just do it.
