There's No Need To Debate Over Known Truths

It’s Sunday. A man enters the local church. He’s in town on business and hasn’t been seen inside a church for over fifty years, except for weddings and funerals. If you knew this man you’d say, he’s not interested in hearing about the [Bible]. He’s greeted by many, but remains a stranger to them. The message he heard that day was taken straight from the [Bible], believe in Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Unbeknownst to those present that day the man wasn’t saved, when he entered the church that is. Praise God, before the entire congregation, the man confessed to being a sinner, thanked Jesus for dying on a cross for him, and now believes in Jesus Christ. If I was present that day, I’d say this man is saved. After church the man was invited to lunch, an opportunity to celebrate the moment. During this time he mentioned that he was in town for another week, and would like to get together again. “There’s a Bible study on Wednesday night,” they said. With great joy, he accepts the invitation. It’s Wednesday. For the first time this born again believer in Jesus Christ heard, unless one believes “the Son is God” that is to say the doctrine of the trinity they cannot be saved. Confused, the man says, “Am I saved? Sunday’s message opened my eyes as to who Jesus is, what He did for me. It changed my life. All I want to do now is tell people about Jesus. What is this doctrine of the trinity?” There’s no need to debate over known truths, especially concerning this particular individual’s salvation. Believe in Jesus and you will be saved. On Sunday, he confessed to being a sinner, thanked Jesus for dying on a cross for him, and now believes in Jesus Christ. Thus, when this individual arrived at the Bible study on Wednesday night he’s [born again] saved according to the Scriptures.
