Short version: In 1979 I heard two men discussing the return of Christ and the Great Tribulation. I had never heard of either, so I decided to look in an old Bible I had and see if it said anything about them. I didn’t know where to look, so I started at Genesis 1 and Matthew 1. When I got to Matthew 12:32, I realized I needed God’s forgiveness and that if I didn’t get it I would go to hell. A couple of weeks later I found a gospel tract on the side of the road. The tract used scriptures (real ones from the King James Bible, not the made-up ones in the other versions) to explain how Jesus died to pay for my sins, was buried, and rose again. When I read for the first time in my life those wonderful words, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved,” it was like a light came on in my soul. I fell to my knees and asked the Lord to save me, but I guess I was too late. He already had. No Chris, salvation isn’t complicated at all. Anyone convicted of sin by the Holy Ghost who trusts Christ to save him gets saved. People complicate it when they try to add all kinds of rigamarole of their own devising to God’s simple plan of salvation. |
