1 A Few Minutes With Someone Who Loves You John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. J.T. Bristow charts
2 Read: 2Tim 3:16-17 The Holy Bible Is The Inspired Word of God! DO YOU BELIEVE THIS? Since There Is No Other Inspired Revelation From God To Man (Galatians 1:8-9), The Bible Is Our Only Source Of Religious Authority. Isn t This TRUE?
3 Read: 2Tim 2:15 There Are 2 Natural Divisions OLD OLD TESTAMENT TESTAMENT NEW NEW TESTAMENT TESTAMENT The Holy Bible (Word of Truth) Must Be Rightly Divided Or Handled Correctly As We Study, Shouldn t It? Should We Obey Everything In Both OT And NT In Order To Be Saved? Look At Noah, Should We Build An Ark? Look At Israel, Should We Offer Burnt Sacrifices? Look At The Law, Should We Make 3 Annual Trips To Jerusalem?
4 What Rom 7:1-4 Teaches When a woman is married to 2 men at the same time it s called what? Adultery. If a Jew or anyone tries to live under the authority of OT & NT at the same time, that s called what? Spiritual Adultery. But if the 1 st husband dies, is she free to marry another? Also, the 1 st Covenant must be dead before anyone can live under the 2 nd!! Rom 7:4 Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.
5 Read: Eph 2:15; Col 2:14 When Did First Written Law Die? Who abolished the Law of Commandments Contained in Ordinances? Who took it out of the way? Note: There was no other written Law at the time of the Cross other than the O.T. God speaks today only through his son! Heb 1:1-2 THE N.T. IS THE LAST WILL AND TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST MATT 28:18 HEB 9:16-17
6 OUR GREAT SPIRITUAL PROBLEM Isaiah 59:1-2 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
7 Read: 1Jo 3:4; Jas 4:17 The Bible Defines SIN SIN is breaking God s Law [murder, stealing, immorality, adding to God s Word] SIN is NOT doing what we should [not feeding the hungry, not worshiping, not loving neighbor, not obeying Gospel] ALL HAVE SINNED (ROM 3:23) I REALIZE I HAVE SINNED --- HAVEN T YOU?
8 WHY DID CHRIST DIE? Rom 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. FOR MY SINS! FOR MY FORGIVENESS! WHAT WOULD WE DO WERE IT NOT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD?
9 Conditions For Forgiveness are as simple as: A B - C BELIEVE ---- John 20:31; Hebrews 11:6 REPENT (change mind) ---- Luke 13:3; Acts 17:30 CONFESS ---- Romans 10:10; Acts 8:37 BE BAPTIZED ---- Acts 2:38; Acts 22:16
10 BE BAPTIZED?? What Is It? A burial in water. Acts 2:38; Romans 6:4 Pictures Christ s Death Burial Resurrection Romans 6:3-5 Couldn t be a sprinkling could it? BAPTIZO in Greek means a burial John 3:23
11 BE BAPTIZED?? What Is Its Purpose? Remission of sins --- Acts 2:38; 22:16 It is The New Birth --- John 3:3-5; Romans 8:16-17 Places one In Christ --- Galatians 3:27; (Salvation is In Christ 2Timothy 2:10) Places one In The Body of Christ, The Church --- Ephesians 1:22-23; 4:4 (Christ will save The Body Ephesians 5:23; 1Corinthians 12:13) HAVE YOU BEEN BURIED IN WATER FOR THESE PURPOSES? (STUDY ACTS 19:1-5)
12 What Happens After You Are Baptized? The Lord Adds You To His Church --- Acts 2:41, 47 What Church Are You Added To? --- Matthew 16: Acts 20: Ephesians 1:22-23 THIS IS THE ONE I WANT TO BE A MEMBER OF HOW ABOUT YOU?
13 Christians Are Purchased With The Blood of Christ! We Now Belong To God --- 1Corinthians 6:19-20 We All Worship God Together --- Hebrews 10:25 We All Partake of The Lord s Supper --- Acts 20:7 We Must All Be Involved In The Work of The Church --- Titus 3:1; 1Corinthians 15:58 We Must Be Dedicated --- 2Corinthians 8:5; Revelation 2:10; Galatians 2:20 BAPTISM IS JUST THE BEGINNING!
14 When Should One Be Baptized? READ: Acts 2: Same Day Acts 8: As Soon As Taught Acts 16: Same Hour Jesus said, If you love Me, keep My commandments. (John 14:15)
15 WHAT S THE HURRY? Life Is Uncertain (James 4:13-14) Christ Is Coming Again (2Thessalonians 1:7-9)
16 Forgiveness Is This Simple For You Do You Believe That Jesus Christ Is The Son of God? Do You Want Him To Be Your Savior and Master? Would You Like To Be Baptized RIGHT NOW?
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
