One Cannot Live On Another’s Faith for Salvation; All Must Hear and Believe for Themselves to Be Saved – You Can Help Family and Others By Sharing the Gospel
MESSAGE SUMMARY:
Others to whom you minister, such as your children and friends, can hear about the Lord and the Gospel from you – for the first time or in timely reinforcement. However, your family and friends must believe for themselves to be saved. With regards to “others” not within your sphere of influence, they must hear for themselves and believe for themselves to be saved – no one can be a proxy for someone else’s Salvation faith. Many of us first believed because of what our parents taught us; but then we heard the Gospel for ourselves, and we believed. No one can live on another’s faith in Jesus for their Salvation. We must hear the Gospel for ourselves and come to the Lord in our own faith. As Paul tells us in Romans 10:16-17: “But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, ‘Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?’. So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." You will stand before the Lord alone in judgment – you will speak for yourself with only Jesus to speak for you. Share God’s good news with your family and friends so that they can hear and believe for themselves for Eternal Life.
TODAY’S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will trust in the Lord with all my heart. I will trust in the Lord with all of my heart and lean not on my own understanding. In all my ways I will seek to know Him, and He will make my pathways straight. (From Proverbs 3:5f).
SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): 2 Timothy 1:5; 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14; Matthew 7:24-27; Psalms 72b:11-20.
