THE PLAN OF SALVATION? Is the concept Biblical? Or an invention of man?
SCOTTS FIVE-FINGER EXERCISE Scott s five-finger exercise brand of preaching produced a significant result from the legalistic tendencies inherent in the primitivism and rationalism of both Scott and Alexander Campbell and in due time came to dominate Churches of Christ. When this happened, Scott s heirs transformed the five-point plan from one that emphasized both the work of humankind and the gracious response of God to one that featured only the work of humankind. (Hughes)
WE ARE SAVED BY THE GRACE OF GOD! This must be, and is the central and preeminent truth of the Gospel! John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8-9
OUR QUESTION: IS EVERYONE SAVED? If not, one of two possibilities 1. Jesus did not shed his blood for all 2. God requires something of man
CAN A MAN PLEASE GOD WITHOUT FAITH? But 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 diligently seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6)
CAN A MAN RECEIVE FORGIVENESS WITHOUT REPENTANCE? Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out (Acts 3:19)
CAN A MAN BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY GOD WITHOUT CONFESSING HIM? whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven. (Matthew 10:33)
CAN A MAN HAVE HIS SINS REMITTED WITHOUT BAPTISM? Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins... (Acts 2:38)
DOES GOD REQUIRE ANYTHING ELSE OF MAN? even so we also should walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:4)
THE PLAN GOD HAS DEVISED FOR MAN S SALVATION CONTAINS CONDITIONS THAT WE MUST MEET! It is not legalism It is obedience!
GOD DID HIS PART. WILL YOU DO YOURS? HEAR (THE GOSPEL) BELIEVE (THE GOSPEL) REPENT (OF YOUR SINS) CONFESS (CHRIST AS THE SON OF GOD) BE BAPTIZED (IN WATER, TO WASH AWAY YOURS SINS)
