GOSPEL NUGGET #365

Who Are Actually Saved By God?

God sent His Son into the world to save sinners. As such, the Lord Jesus Christ is the potential and the provisional Savior of all sinners. However, salvation does come with a condition.

Here read it for yourself:

Joh 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that WHOEVER BELIEVES (trusts) IN HIM should not perish but have everlasting life.

1Co 1:21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached TO SAVE THOSE WHO BELIEVE (trust in Jesus).

1Ti 4:10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO BELIEVE (trust in Jesus).

The Lord Jesus is the potential and the provisional Savior of all, but He is only the actual Savior of those who trust in Him and what He did on the cross for salvation.
