Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P865 (08-31-23)
Salvation is Receiving the Resurrected Life of Christ Jesus
~ When a person places faith in Jesus for salvation, they are not simply placing faith in a historical figure. For most people actually believe that Jesus was a real person in history, but they don’t know that he was God in the flesh that took away their sins at the cross. Or they give lip service to that. And simply believing in a historical person won’t save a person either. Only by hearing the Truth of the Word of God can a person be saved from death to LIFE. Jesus is God in the flesh. He forgave ALL your sins at the cross. Now place faith in Him and what He and He alone did for you personally at the cross. When you place faith in the TRUTH of the Word of God, His Spirit comes to live inside you and give you eternal life. And a reminder, Eternal Life is ETERNAL.
Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved. For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, “The man who does those things shall live by them.” But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) or, “ ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Judaean [Ἰουδαίου (Ioudaiou)] and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:
“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace,
Who bring glad tidings of good things!”But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:
“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the world.”But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:
“I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
I will move you to anger by a foolish nation.”But Isaiah is very bold and says:
“I was found by those who did not seek Me;
I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”But to Israel he says:
“All day long I have stretched out My hands
To a disobedient and contrary people.” Romans 10

~ “Okay, well, Todd, as as you probably heard, as I was talking to one of the other people there, that salvation is recognizing what God has said about you. Now you can go to a psychiatrist, and he’ll tell you about you. But he doesn’t know you any more than he knows a lamppost. He’s as messed up as you are. But when God says something about you, you sit back and say, Well, God made me and if there’s anyone who ought to know about me, it should be the one who made me. So the issue is, you’re willing to listen now to what God is talking about you instead of some shrink, talking about your being bipolar, or schizophrenic and all these kinds of terms, which you’re not going to find in the Scripture. And you’re going to say, No, I want to listen to what God has to say about me and what God has to say about us Todd as you are born dead spiritually. And what death is, is the absence of life. The life of God departed from Adam, when he sinned, and you and I are born in Adam, dead to God. And he said, but I don’t want you to stay that way. That’s your condition. But I was raised from the dead to give you life. And the kind of life that I want to give you is eternal life. And if you’re willing to turn to me by faith, accepting the fact that I took away your sins at the cross when I died on that cross to do that, and I was raised from the dead in order to give you resurrected life. And if that’s your desire, then I’m ready to come and to live inside of you. And be your guide and to lead you into all truth.” ~ Bob George
