HAVE YOU BEEN SAVED?

Stage Six

    The next stage is process of salvation is the preaching and hearing of the word,of which Paul tells us: "but how are they to call one in whom they have not believed?And how are they to believe in one of whom they have never heared?And how are they to hear without someone to proclaim him?And how are they to proclaim him unless they are sent?

    As it is written, "How beutiful are the feet of those who bring good news; for Isaiah says, Lord,who has belived our message? So faith comes from from what is heard,and what is heard comes through the word of Christ' (Romans 10:14 - 17)

    Yes,faith does come through hearing but what is it that must be heard for one to be saved?It is the Gospel,the proclamation of the Good News.It is for the reason that Jesus gave his disciples the great commision,telling them, "Go therefore make disciples of all the nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teach them to obey everything that I am with you always,to the end of the age" ( Mathew 28 :19 - 20 )
