THE COMPLETE PROCESSES OF GENUINE SALVATION Acts 26:20, “But declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.” There are three processes of genuine salvation in which all must be completed before one can arrive at a genuine Bible salvation that guarantees one’s name in heaven. These three processes were clearly mentioned by Apostle Paul in the book of Acts 26:20, “that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.” To experience and maintain genuine salvation, you must: REPENT To repent is to realize your sin as sin, yourself as short coming to God’s glory, and to be ready to forsake the sin you have realized. Realization of your sin without readiness, with all your heart, to forsake the sin will amount to nothing. This is where many are missing it, and they keep finding themselves back into the same sins. Many preachers and churches are misleading people in the process of salvation, and they are helping people to possess fake salvation that does not give them victory over sin. Some preachers, when they call people for altar call, they tell them to confess their sins and claim their salvation by faith; such system is not only unbiblical, but it will never give you Bible salvation. Confession of sin is not the first thing do to for salvation. Fire brigade altar among most modern pastors is a means of misleading people for “cheap” salvation” without sacrifice; and also for those preachers to claim they are still preaching salvation. With this half-done salvation process, they have likeness of original faith, but deny the power thereof. The power of salvation is genuine repentance, and if you miss this, you can never arrive at genuine salvation; before you can have a genuine repentance you must realize your sins, and ready to forsake them. If you realize your sins and you have not made up your mind to forsake them, it you will have a sorry case, reverting back into the same sins, and God does not take such people serious. If I offend you and I apologize but I am not ready to stop repeating what I did wrong, you will not take my apology seriously. That is exact situation with people who keep confessing sins and committing sins. When you realize your sins and ready to forsake them, then it means you repent, and you will not want to repeat the sin you have repented of. TURN TO GOD In your heart, after you have repented, you need to take the next step by turning to God. To turn to God is to go to God in prayer and confess the sins you have repented of, asks God to forgive you through Jesus Christ and cleanse you, and then you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord. This is turning to God in prayer. DO WORKS BEFITTING REPENTANCE This is what completes and confirms your salvation to be genuine. After your repentance from sin, and prayer of confess and accepting Jesus Christ into your heart, you will not continue in the same old way and manners of life, you will not go back to the sins you have repented and confessed unto God to forgive you. You don’t repeat what you have sincerely repented from. This is what really differentiates genuine salvation from modern fake salvation. The modern salvation says you confess your sins, claim your salvation and continue as you like by faith, but the Bible salvation says you repent, confess and begin the works that fits your repentance, that was what Apostle Paul said, “that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.” Genuine salvation in Christ Jesus is not by our work of righteousness but for works of righteousness, meaning that, you are not saved by your own work of righteousness but only by faith in Christ’s work on the cross; but after you are saved, you begin to work out your salvation by the works that befits your new life in Jesus. Jesus came into this world to save us from sin, but if after you have been saved in Jesus, you are still a slave of sin, it means you have not gotten the genuine salvation of Jesus Christ. Jesus did not save us to continue in sin; He did not save us into unrighteous works. Those who claim faith in sins are ignorant of the truth and victims of the end time heresies. Genuine salvation is not only by faith but with work of righteousness. Anybody can claim salvation, anybody today claims to be a born again Christian, but only by their works you will know those are genuine, and by your work through your lifestyle, ways of talking, how you dress, how you behave and react to people that God will know if you are His genuine child of not. Faith of salvation without work of righteousness is dead and deceptive; faith in the righteousness of Jesus Christ without living like Jesus in work of righteousness is dangerous. So, where are you among them? Have you ever experienced genuine salvation since all these while or you are carrying the modern insufficient salvation without victory of sin? You can get the original today, you should go for the old Bible salvation for Bible result, please follow the three processes and your life will never remain the same again. Matthew 3:8-10 Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, 9 and do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones. 10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. You can also contact me for counsel or if you need biblical enlightenment on personal issues:
