God’s principles of salvation for you

These principles serve as a guide for anyone seeking to understand and experience the fullness of salvation through Jesus Christ. At The Narrow Path International Ministries, we strive to live out these principles and help others to do the same in their own spiritual journey. May this guide illuminate the path to salvation for you and all who seek it.

✝️Steps in God’s Principles of Salvation

1. Faith in Jesus Christ
   1. John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
   1. Ephesians 2:8-9: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.”
2. Repentance from Sin
   1. Acts 3:19: “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.”
   1. 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
3. Confession of Faith
   1. Romans 10:9-10: “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”
4. Baptism
   1. Acts 2:38: “Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'”
   1. Matthew 28:19: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”
5. Receiving the Holy Spirit
   1. Acts 1:8: “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
   1. Galatians 5:22-23: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things, there is no law.”
6. Living a Holy Life
   1. 1 Peter 1:15-16: “But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: ‘Be holy because I am holy.’”
   1. Romans 12:1-2: “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
7. Endurance and Faithfulness
   1. Matthew 24:13: “But the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.”
   1. 2 Timothy 4:7-8: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.”
8. Commitment to Discipleship
   1. Matthew 28:19-20: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
   1. Colossians 2:6-7: “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.”

🙏 A Prayer of Principles of Salvation

Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You with a grateful heart, acknowledging the wonderful gift of salvation You have given us through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Lord, I thank You for Your unconditional love and grace that make this salvation possible.

Help me to understand and embrace the principles of salvation. Let me remember always that:

Salvation is by grace alone: I am saved not by my works but through Your undeserved favor. (Ephesians 2:8-9: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.”)

Salvation is through faith alone: Let my heart trust in Jesus completely, believing in His death, resurrection, and the promise of eternal life. (Romans 10:9-10: “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”)

Salvation is found in Christ alone: Jesus is the only way, the truth, and the life. May I always follow Him wholeheartedly. (John 14:6: “Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’”)

Lord, I thank You for calling me into Your family and granting me the gift of eternal life. May I live in obedience to You, sharing the message of salvation with others and glorifying Your holy name in all I do.

In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
