2. Will be saved at the return of Christ
1 Thessalonians 4:17 (cf. 4:13-17)
" After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together
with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be
with the Lord forever."
Galatians 1:4 (NLT)
"Jesus gave his life for our sins, just as God our Father planned, in order to
rescue us from this evil world in which we live."
III. NEED FOR SALVATION
A. Stated :
Romans 3:23
"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"
B. Elaborated :
1. People are sinners by nature (Eph. 2:1-3), by imputation/transfer
(Ro. 5:19), and by practice (Ro. 1:21-32; 3:9-18; Tit. 3:3).
Romans 5:19 (NLT)
"Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one
other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous."
Ephesians 2:1-3 (NLT)
"Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins.
2 You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the
commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in
the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. 3 All of us used to live that way,
following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By
our very nature we were subject to God’s anger, just like everyone else."
Titus 3:3 (NLT)
"Once we, too, were foolish and disobedient. We were misled and became
slaves to many lusts and pleasures. Our lives were full of evil and envy,
and we hated each other."
