Putting Together the Puzzle of God’s Plan for Salvation

2. Grace of God Ephesians 2:5,8-9
5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved) 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.

3. 11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men
Titus 2:11

4. Grace of God
Acts 15:11
11 But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are.”

5. Blood of Christ 1 Peter 1:18-19
18 knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, 19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ.

6. Blood of Christ Hebrews 9:12-14
12 and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Hebrews 9:12-14

7. Blood of Christ Matthew 26:28
28 for this is My blood of the (new) covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins.

8. The Gospel
John 6:44-45
44 No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught of God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me.

9. The Gospel
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 
Romans 1:16

10. The Gospel
Acts 11:14
 14 and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’

11. Faith in Christ Hebrews 11:6
 6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

12. Faith in Christ
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God.
Romans 5:1-2

13. Faith in Christ

24 Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”

31 They said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
Acts 16:31

15. Faith in Christ Romans 1:16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous man shall live by faith.”

16. Works of Obedience Philippians 2:12
12 So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling;

17. Works of Obedience
9 And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation,
Hebrews 5:9

18. Repentance 2 Corinthians 7:10
10 For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death

19. 3 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.
Repentance
 3 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.
Luke 13:3

20. 19 Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away
Repentance
Acts 3:19
19 Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away

21. Confess
Philippians 2:11
11 and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

22. Confess
 10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
Romans 10:10

23. Confess
Matthew 10:32-33
32 “Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven. 33 But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.

24. Confess
15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
1 John 4:15

25. Baptism
Acts 22:16
16 Now why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.’

26. Baptism
3 Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.
Romans 6:3-4

27. Baptism
1 Peter 3:21
21 Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you—not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience— through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

28. Baptism
16 He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.
Mark 16:16
