Transcript of Introduction
Welcome to our course on The Doctrine of Salvation, How “Righteousness by Faith” Really Works.
Salvation is simple at least it should be. But the reality is that over the course of two thousand years different versions of the gospel have crept into the Christian faith.
Unfortunately, some of these different versions have been promoted by major figures in Christian history and have gained popularity. In fact, most Christians have a false, or at least an incomplete, understanding of the true gospel.
The purpose of this course is to learn the basic elements of the gospel directly from the Bible. The hope is that through this study the process of salvation will once again become clear and simple for the sincere Bible student.
Underlying all the beautiful truths of the Bible is the foundational doctrine of salvation: How God saves a sinner from guilt and condemnation, and: How He prepares that sinner for eternal life in a new world where love and righteousness reign, and sin will never rear its ugly head again.
We must not be guessing as to how the true process of salvation works. We dare not take someone's word for how it works, no matter how influential or educated that person may be. We absolutely must know for ourselves what the Bible really teaches about salvation.
This is the Good News that the apostles preached, the Gospel of Jesus Christ! As Christians, we should know it, live it, and share it.
The best Bible text to introduce this study is found in Romans 1:16 - For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.
The goal of this course is to fully understand this Bible text and to experience its truth in our walk with Jesus.
This course has 4 Sections with 4 Lessons in each Section. For a total of 16 Lessons and each Lesson is 10-15 minutes long. Before we study each section, we will humbly ask God to send His Holy Spirit to guide our minds as we open His Holy Word.
Thank you for joining us for this in-depth study on HOW God Saves!
