Are you saved? If Yes, What have you believed to be saved?

It is simple to know that we are not God's who has control of the heavens, only God has that control. But that does not mean that we are to close our eyes and refuse to listen to all the many things God tells us about salvation.

True and then you have to consider how we tend to put our own thinking into salvation and what it takes and means to be saved instead of God's.

Sadly salvation is indeed watered down and divided I am grateful I came to him knowing very little it was easy and beautiful for me but I worry for others who grew up with all kinds of doctrines and over complicate salvation

something tells me @Hann57 doesn't follow Christ I have seen members of the Paul cult before

"It is simple to know that we are not God's" ? Anyone who is saved belongs to God

you have to consider how we tend to put our own thinking into salvation and what it takes and means to be saved instead of God's.

I notice you don't come right out with how you got saved, if you are really saved. That is the key.

Apparently you must have missed it but I gave you my testimony of how I got saved so let me tell you again. I came to him with a meek and broken heart like a small child.
To go into more detail I was broken and in tears I longed to know what it is like to be loved and to feel loved I was alone in my room at night I looked at my life and everything I owned and it was trash to me I honestly didn't care if I lived or died and I cried out to him begging him to come into my heart I even tried to bargain with him offering him all I owned and everything I was if he would only come into my heart and show me what it is like to be loved I went to bed that night thinking myself in my tears he won't answer me I wouldn't answer me as soon as I woke up I was filled with life, not energy but life itself and I am someone who requires a lot of caffiene to get going in the morning but I leaped out of bed and began dancing in joy in happy tears thanking him over and over again.

From then on it was a love story with him and I I treasured every second I spent with him and when I read the word it was satisfying to my soul as if reading food being fed for the first time. I told you before he and I share a very intimate and very close relationship.
Jesus is my precious beloved my hearts yearning he makes me bleed love for him longing to hold him in my arms with desperate longing to bury my face in his arms and express with words that this tongue cannot speak my affection and love for him.

I answered you now you tell me who is he to you and what makes you think you are saved? The ball is in your court

1 Corinthians 3
Divisions in the Church

1But I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual people, but as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ. 2I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready, 3for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way? 4For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not being merely human?
5What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each. 6I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. 7So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. 8He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor. 9For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building.

We are saved by Grace through faith.

We aren't saved by trying to believe words written in a book.

We are saved by believing that the Lord Jesus Christ has the ABILITY to save us from our condition and calling on Him for His Help.


After we are saved, we begin to understand the words written in the book. We believe these words because we have experienced them.


To try and say that people MUST believe before God acts is ignorant, in my opinion. Where did your belief come from in the first place?

John 3:27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.


This way, scripture is absolutely True. Salvation is a gift. Grace is a gift. Faith is a gift. Everything needful for Salvation is a Gift of God. And not from the work of people.

I have showed you the gospel over and over. Asking Jesus into you heart is not the gospel according to the scriptures.
You have to believe the gospel given to Paul 1 Corinthians 15: 3,4.

You made all that up. That is called a fable.

If I may ask who are you addressing this to?
