I AM SAVED — NOW WHAT?
Have you ever wondered
what happens after you
accept Jesus Christ as your
Saviour? Or, do you ever
wonder what really
happens to a person once
they are saved?
Make sure you understand salvation.
First John 5:13 tells us, “I write these things to
you who believe in the name of the Son of God
so that you may know that you have eternal
life.” God wants us to understand salvation.
God wants us to have the confidence of
knowing for sure that we are saved.
Don’t think of the church as a building.
A second purpose of the church
is to teach the Bible
Find a good church
that teaches the Bible.
A third purpose of the church is worship.
Set aside time each day to focus on
God.
It is very important for us to spend
time each day focusing on God.
Some people call this a “quiet
time.” Others call it “devotions,”
because it is a time when we
devote ourselves to God.
The word “baptize” means to immerse
in water. Baptism is the biblical way of
publicly proclaiming your new faith in
Christ and your commitment to follow
Him.
A dictionary definition of a Christian would
be something similar to “a person professing
belief in Jesus as the Christ or in the religion
based on the teachings of Jesus.”
"What is Christian discipleship?"
Answer: By definition, a disciple is a
follower, one who accepts and assists in
spreading the doctrines of another. A
Christian disciple is a person who accepts
and assists in the spreading of the good
news of Jesus Christ.
Fruitfulness (John 15:5-8).
Our job is not producing fruit.
Our job is to abide in Christ, and
if we do, the Holy Spirit will
produce the fruit, and this fruit is
the result of our obedience.
Love for other disciples
(John 13:34-35). We are
told that love of other
believers is the evidence
of our being a member of
God's family (1 John 3:10).
"What is the difference between
a Christian and a disciple?"
The Greek term for “disciple” in the New
Testament is mathetes, which means more
than just “student” or “learner.” A disciple is
a “follower,” someone who adheres
completely to the teachings of another,
making them his rule of life and conduct. The
Pharisees prided themselves in being
disciples of Moses (John 9:28). Jesus’
followers were called “disciples.” Their
discipleship began with Jesus’ call and
required them to exercise their will in
"What does it mean to be sanctified?"
To be sanctified is to be “set apart.” Synonyms
for sanctified are holy, consecrated,
and hallowed. The Bible speaks of things being
“sanctified,” such as Mt. Sinai (Exodus 19:23)
and gifts to the temple (Matthew 23:17); days,
such as the Sabbath (Exodus 20:8); names,
such as God’s (Matthew 6:9); and people, such
as the Israelites (Leviticus 20:7–8) and
Christians (Ephesians 5:26).
"Once saved always saved?"
Once a person is saved are they always saved? When
people come to know Christ as their Savior, they are
brought into a relationship with God that guarantees their
salvation as eternally secure. Numerous passages of
Scripture declare this fact.
Can a Christian lose salvation?"
Answer: First, the
term Christian must be defined. A
“Christian” is not a person who
has said a prayer or walked down
an aisle or been raised in a
Christian family. While each of
these things can be a part of the
Christian experience, they are not
what makes a Christian. A
Christian is a person who has fully
trusted in Jesus Christ as the only
Savior and therefore possesses the
Holy Spirit (John 3:16; Acts
16:31; Ephesians 2:8–9).
"What does it mean to truly follow Christ?"
"What is the importance
of Christian baptism?"
Christian baptism is one of
two ordinances that Jesus
instituted for the church.
