Romans 1:16; John 3:16; 1 John 5:13
In today's discussion we will focus on the blessing that come from being saved; let us reflect on what is salvation? Salvation is being delivered safely from harm or danger. The question now becomes, What harm or danger were we delivered from? All who believe is delivered from the danger of being eternally separated from God because of sin that enslaved us to Satan and his demonic destructive powers and being delivered to a life of eternal fellowship with God and spending eternity with Him.
Salvation is a free gift from God of eternal life through His Son Jesus Christ. This was done because of His love for all humanity. In order for us to received God's free gift of salvation we must accept His Son Jesus as our personal Savior in faith (John 3:16). It is noteworthy to say that the only way back to God the Father is through His Son Jesus Christ as the separation was brought on by sin. Isn't it wonderful that God would not allow humanity to remain in a fallen state-eternally separated from Him? Believe and accept your free gift.
The specific blessings that occur from being saved are (a) all who believe are redeemed through the blood of Jesus; therefore, our sin debt is marked paid in full. This means we do not have to die for our sins, but die to sin with Christ. (b) All who believe have been justified-made right with God and declared not guilty before God. (c) Lastly, all who believe have been sanctified-set aside or consecrated for service for God; therefore, all believers become ambassadors for God.
If the question were raised, What assurances do we have as believers? Several scriptures provide answers that give the assurances of our salvation; some are (a) 1 John 5:13 sates in part "that you believe on the name of the Son of God." There is no eternal life or assurance of salvation without true faith in Jesus Christ. (b) 1 John 1:1 gives another assurance of salvation, (c) then there is John 1:1-4, 14 as both scriptures depicts Christ as the "Word of God." (d) Lastly, there is the Holy Spirit who dwells in each believer to guide, teach, protect, and lead us in the righteousness of God and He keeps us as He is our sealer. Thanks God for Jesus salvation is mine.
