Salvation

We at Real Truth Speaker believe that salvation comes ONLY from accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. By grace, we are saved through faith, and not by our works (Ephesians 2:8-9).

We believe in the Plan of Salvation found in Acts 2:38, which is to repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus, and receive the Holy Spirit. Once you get saved, you cannot continue to sin and live like the world; you must be born again (John 3:3-6).

We believe that every Christian should have a circumcised heart and have God’s laws written on their heart (Jeremiah 31:33). We REJECT the idea of Christians being able to live lawlessly because of the New Covenant (Colossians 3:1-11). The Holy Spirit should sanctify you, and you should desire to be holy, just as the LORD your God is holy (Leviticus 19:2).

We DO NOT believe in the doctrine of “Once Saved Always Saved”, as the Bible makes it clear that believers can (and will) fall away from the faith (2 Thessalonians 2:1-3, 1 Timothy 4:1-3).

We DO NOT believe in a works-based doctrine, but we do preach obedience. You cannot claim faith in God, but refuse to keep His commandments and do His will (Matthew 7:21-23). Faith without works is dead (James 2:14-26) and we must be doers of the word, not just hearers (James 1:22).

We believe that developing a personal relationship with God, through prayer, worship, and reading your Bible daily are all extremely important. Meditate on His word day and night (Joshua 1:8), and seek to worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).

There is only one way to salvation and God made it clear: accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and turn from your wicked ways.
