Acts 16 “Salvation is Simple”
“Sirs,
what must I do to be saved?” (v.30a)
The Philippian jailer asked one of the most significant
questions in Scripture: “What must I do to be saved?” And Paul and Silas gave
one of the most significant replies: “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will
be saved” (vv. 30-31). It’s that simple!
The Truth
“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 Jew 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.” (Romans 10: 9-13)
