217 - What Happens at Salvation

This episode shares not only what happens at Salvation, but how to explain what has happened to the new believer once they are born again. I bring out twelve (12) points to disciple a new believer in the truths of what they have received. 
1) The believer is delivered from the power of Satan's dark kingdom and translated into the Kingdom of God's love (Colossians 1:13). 
2) The believer becomes ". . . a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17), being born anew through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ by that same Spirit that raised Him from the dead (Romans 8:11).
3) The believer is given a new life, an eternal life which never dies (Titus 3:3-7), that is, we're ". . . partakers of the divine nature . . ." (2 Peter 1:4).
 4) The believer is made right with God. Before receiving Christ, we were sinners, but once born again, we become right with God; even "saints" (Romans 3:23-26; Ephesians 1:1). In other words, we are made right with God by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9). Righteousness is the ability to stand in the presence of God without any fear, guilt, condemnation or inferiority which comes when we believe in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. He was delivered for our justification. "For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him" (2 Corinthians 5:21, NKJV).
5) The believer is saved [made alive together with Christ] from the punishment for sin (Ephesians 2:1-5). We've been made alive through Christ, ". . . who loved me and gave Himself for me" (Galatians 2:20).
 6) The believer is free from sin, the price paid through Jesus' blood, the forgiveness of sin (Ephesians 1:7).
These six (6) points and six others are brought out in this message for your own edification and to equip you for evangelism; bringing people to Christ and building their faith in all we receive once saved. Join me as we look into these blessings.
