II. Salvation
Where did it come from and how is it brought about?


Salvation comes from God alone!

Psalm 3:8
"Salvation belongeth unto the LORD ..."


A.
  Salvation is exclusively from God because of His
        mercy and grace; and not by our works. (Eph 2:4-9)
    1. 
God gave us Salvation by mercy and grace.
        Eph 2:4 "But ____, who is rich in ______, for his great
                love wherewith he loved us,"
        Eph 2:5 "Even when we were ______ in sins, hath quickened
               us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)"
        Eph 2:6 "And hath raised us up together, and made us sit
               together in heavenly places in ______  ______:"
        Eph 2:7 "That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches
               of his ______ in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus."
        Eph 2:8 "For by ______ are ye saved through faith; and that not of
              yourselves: it is the _____ of God:"
    2. 
Not by our works.
        Eph 2:9 "____ of works, lest any man should boast."
    3. 
Because grace and works are mutually exclusive.
                If it is by one then it cannot be mixed with the other; i.e., if you mix works
            with grace, then grace is no longer grace.  And the contrary is also true.
        Rom 11:6 "And if __  ______, then is it ___  ______  ___  _______:
            otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no
            more
grace: otherwise work is no more work."

B.  God supplied the means of our Salvation.
    Jn 3:14 "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,
                even so must the ___ of man be lifted up:"
    Jn 3:15 "That whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
                but _____ eternal life."
    Jn 3:16 "For ____ so loved the world, that he ____ his only begotten
                Son, that whosoever ____________ in him should not perish,
                but _____  _____________ life."
    I Jn 4:14
"And we have seen and do testify that the ________ sent
                the ____
to be
the _________ of the world."

C.  God gave Salvation to us because of His love for us.
    Jn 3:16 "For ____ so loved the world, that he ____ his only begotten
                Son, that whosoever ___________ in him should not perish,
                but _____  ____________ life."

    I Jn 4:9
"In this was manifested the _____ of God toward us, because
                that God sent his ____  __________  ___ into the world, that
                we might live through him."
   
I Jn 4:10 "Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he ______  __,
                and sent his ____
to be
the ___________ for our sins."

D.  God chose to give us His Salvation through Jesus Christ.
   
Jn 3:16 "For ____ so loved the world, that he ____ his only begotten
                Son, that whosoever ___________ in him should not perish,
                but _____  ____________ life."
    Jn 3:17
"For God sent not his ___ into the world to condemn the world;
                but that the world ______  ____ might be ________."
   
Jn 3:18 "He that believeth on ___ is ___ condemned: but he that believeth
                not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the
                name of the only begotten Son of God."
   
Jn 3:36 "He that believeth on the Son hath ___________  _____: and
                he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of
                God abideth on him."

    Rom 10:9 "That if thou shalt ________ with thy mouth the Lord ______,
                and shalt believe i
n thine heart that God hath raised him from
                the dead, thou shalt be ________."
   
Rom 10:10 "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and
                with the mouth confession is made unto ___________."
    Rom 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
                shall be ________."
   
Act 4:12 "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other
                name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be _______."

E.  God gave us Salvation and He chose to do so before we ever existed.
    I Peter 1:18
"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not __________ with
        corruptible things,
as silver and gold, from your vain conversation
       
received
by tradition from your fathers;"
        
    :19 "But with the precious blood of ______, as of a lamb without
        blemish and without spot:"
           
:20 "Who verily was foreordained _______ the _____________ of
        the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,"
            "foreordained
Gk
prognwsmenou, pro-genohs-menoo,
                    def. to know before, to foreknow, foreordained
            God knew that He would supply Salvation to us before He ever brought about
        the creation because He knew that mankind would choose to sin and, thus, would
        be in need of Salvation by His grace.  And He chose, before the foundation of the
        world, to bring about that Salvation through Jesus Christ.

F.  God chose to tell us of His Salvation by His Word- the Bible.
    I
Peter 1:23 "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible,
        by the _____ of ____, which liveth and abideth for ever.
"
    :24
"For all flesh is
as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass.
        The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:"

    :25 "But the _____ of the Lord endureth ___  _____. And this is the word
        which by the gospel is preached unto you."

G.  God has chosen to deliver His Salvation to us through the channel of Faith.
    Eph 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved ________  ______; and that not of
        yourselves: it is the _____ of God:"

H.  And God has chosen that "saving Faith," the channel by which He has chosen to
        deliver His Salvation to us, will come to us by His Word.
    Rom 10:17 "So then faith
cometh by hearing,
                     and hearing by the _____  __  ____."

I.  God has chosen to send His Salvation to the whole world.
    Rom 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the
        power of God unto salvation to ____  ___ that believeth; to the
        Jew first, and also to the Greek."
   
Rom 3:22 "Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ
        unto ___ and upon ___ them that _________: for there is no difference:"

    Rom 3:29
"Is he the God of the Jews only? is he
not also of the Gentiles?
        Yes, of the Gentiles also:"
   
Rom 3:30 "Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the ___________ by faith,"
        and ____________ through faith."

J.  Summary- Salvation is of God.
    In His love, God has provided the means of Salvation, His only begotten Son, the channel
        of Salvation, saving Faith, the messenger of saving Faith, His Word, the deliverer of
        the message, the preacher, the broadness of His Salvation, to every one that believeth,
        and supplied it all because of His love, mercy, grace, and kindness.  We are, therefore,
        left with only one conclusion.  Salvation is of God and there is nothing, no works of any
        kind that we can do to add to or take away from its total effectiveness.  All we can do is
        believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and accept God's Salvation as a gift.
    Rom 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the ________  __  ______: for it is the
        _______ of ___ unto salvation to ____  ___ that believeth; to the
        Jew first, and also to the Greek."
    Eph 2:8 "For by ______ are ye saved through ______; and that not of
          yourselves: it is the _____ of ____:"

    Eph 2:9 "____ of works, lest any man should boast."
    Act 16:30 "And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be _______?"
   
Act 16:31 "And they said, _________ on the Lord Jesus Christ,
   
          and thou shalt be _______ ..."
    Act 4:12 "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is _____  ______ name
          under heaven given among men, _________ we must be saved."


Salvation comes from God alone!
Psalm 3:8
"Salvation belongeth unto the LORD ..."
