Salvation is not self-punishment, fasting, pain infliction, or meditation. It is not living a good life - Loving others, acts of service, charity, or abstinence from sin. Salvation is not denying sin, claiming to be saved, or pretending to be. Salvation is a gift from God that cannot be earned by good deeds or simply being a good person. In this episode, we will call upon various texts in the Bible and open up your understanding of true biblical faith and the assurance God is granting you of his eternal presence in heaven instead of just hoping to make it on your own.
