REPENTANCE: PART OF SALVATION
Alan Yusko
I have see confused believers or even false teachers make the foolish claim that repentance is not needed for salvation. Well, they are wrong and lack a proper understanding to the gospel that saves. You see if a person loves sin, he/she can never be saved. This is where repentance comes in. It is a hatred of sin and a desire to be free from it. Then come to the Lord Jesus and trust in Him alone for eternal salvation. This is how one may be saved.
But false teachers do not see repentance in their favorate salvation verse so they twist the scriptures and claim it is not a part of salvation.
Below are several verses in the New Testament that apply to a lost soul that desires to be saved. Just admit to the Lord you are a lost sinner and hate your sin. Then come to the Lord Jesus for eternal salvation.
Acts 3:19
“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;”
Acts 11:18
“When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.”
Acts 20:21
“Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Acts 26:20
“But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.”
Romans 2:4
“Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?”
2 Corinthians 7:10
“For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.”
2 Peter 3:9
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”
DECEPTION: HAVE THE ELECT BEEN DECEIVED? By Alan Yusko The answer to the question in the title of this post is ... yes you are deceived. Indeed, many who call themselves saved have been deceived in these very last days. Look at these verses: Matthew 24 kjv 24 “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.” Mark 13 kjv 22 “For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.” Now what do I mean that many of the elect, the saved have been deceived? Sadly, many have fallen for satan's corrupted and perverted false modern bibles. They have fallen away from the pure word of God in the kjv. The deceived read, quote, and use bibles based on corrupted documents and claim they are more up-to-date that the kjv. This is the deception of the devil. You see the kjv is both imspired and preserved b...
