Bible Lesson: Conversations With
Jesus: Salvation, And It's Conditions.
Bible Text:
Luke 13:22-30 NKJV (The Narrow Way)
22 And He went
through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward
Jerusalem.
23 Then one
said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to
them,
24 “Strive to
enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to
enter and will not be able.
25 When once
The Master Of The House has risen up and shut the door, and you begin
to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open
for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you,
where you are from,’
26 then you
will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You
taught in our streets.’
27 But He will
say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from
Me, all you workers of iniquity.’
28 There will
be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and
Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves
thrust out.
29 They will
come from the east and the west, from the north and the south, and
sit down in the kingdom of God.
30 And indeed
there are last who will be first, and there are first who will be
last.”
Bible Topic:
Conditions
Of Salvation:
Salvation
Only Through The Lord Jesus:
Psalm 3:8 KJV
Salvation
belongeth unto The Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
Psalm 37:39 KJV
But the
salvation of the righteous is of the Lord: He is their strength in
the time of trouble.
Psalm 62:1 KJV
Truly my soul
waiteth upon God: from Him cometh my salvation.
John 14:6 KJV
Jesus saith
unto him, I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life: no man cometh unto
The Father, but by Me.
Acts 4:12 KJV
Neither is
there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
I John 5:12 KJV
He that hath
The Son hath Life; and he that hath not The Son of God hath not Life.
Grace/Faith:
John 3:16-21 KJV
16 For God so
loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting Life.
17 For God sent
not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world
through Him might be saved.
18 He that
believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is
condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of The
Only Begotten Son Of God.
19 And this is
the condemnation, that Light is come into the world, and men loved
darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every
one that doeth evil hateth The Light, neither cometh to The Light,
lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that
doeth Truth cometh to The Light, that his deeds may be made manifest,
that they are wrought in God.
Ephesians 2:8,9
KJV
8 For by grace
are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is The
Gift Of God:
9 Not of works,
lest any man should boast.
Titus 3:5,6 KJV
5 Not by works
of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He
saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of The Holy
Ghost;
6 Which He shed
on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior;
Confession:
Acts 2:36-41 KJV
36 Therefore
let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the
same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37 Now when
they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto
Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall
we do?
38 Then Peter
said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name
of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive The
Gift Of The Holy Ghost.
39 For the
promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar
off, even as many as The Lord our God shall call.
40 And with
many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves
from this untoward generation.
41 Then they
that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there
were added unto them about three thousand souls.
Acts 16:30-33
KJV
30 And brought
them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they
said, Believe on The Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and
thy house.
32 And they
spake unto him The Word Of The Lord, and to all that were in his
house.
33 And he took
them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was
baptized, he and all his, straightway.
Romans 10:9 KJV
That if thou
shalt confess with thy mouth The Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in
thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be
saved.
Obedience To
The Word:
Deuteronomy
26:16 KJV
This day The
Lord thy God hath commanded thee to do these statutes and judgments:
thou shalt therefore keep and do them with all thine heart, and with
all thy soul.
Joshua 1:8 KJV
This Book Of
The Law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to
all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way
prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
I Samuel 15:22
KJV
And Samuel
said, Hath The Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and
sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of The Lord? Behold, to obey is
better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
Matthew 7:21 KJV
Not every one
that saith unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of
heaven; but he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven.
Love For One
Another:
John 13:34 KJV
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
I John 4:20,21
KJV
20 If a man
say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that
loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he
hath not seen?
21 And this
commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother
also.
1 John 3:15 KJV
Whosoever
hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath
eternal Life abiding in him.
Forgiveness
Of Others:
Mark 11:25 KJV
And when ye
stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your
Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
Luke 17:4 NLT
Even if that
person wrongs you seven times a day and each time turns again and
asks forgiveness, you must forgive.”
Ephesians 4:32
KJV
And be ye kind
one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for
Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
Colossians 3:13
KJV
Forbearing one
another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against
any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
Please note, conditions of salvation, in no way or form, duly
suggests, the earning of salvation, which is a free Gift Of God!
Are all these qualifications met at the moment of salvation, no. But
they will follow the true child of God.
The repentant thief on the cross, was never baptized, nor did he have
time to show love to others, or obedience to The Word Of God. And
yet, because he turned to The Lord with all his heart (in public
confession), he was saved, our Lord said so.
Jesus
Paid It All
I hear The Savior say,
“Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all.”
Chorus:
Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.
Lord, now indeed I find
Thy pow’r, and Thine alone,
Can change the leper’s spots
And melt the heart of stone.
For nothing good have I
Whereby Thy grace to claim;
I’ll wash my garments white
In The Blood Of Calv’ry’s Lamb.
And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
Jesus died my soul to save,
my lips shall still repeat.

Prayer:
Isaiah 1:18 KJV
Come now, and
let us reason together, saith The Lord: though your sins be as
scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like
crimson, they shall be as wool.
I Peter 1:18,19
KJV
18 Forasmuch as
ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver
and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your
fathers;
19 But with The
Precious Blood Of Christ, as of A Lamb Without Blemish And Without
Spot:
