THE ONE AND ONLY WAY!
Acts 4:12 – Devotional
Acts 4:12
“Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.“
I shudder when I hear someone proudly boast that they have always been a Christian. That is so far from scripturally sound. God’s Word clearly reveals that every last one of us must experience a spiritual birth to reach heaven.
The sad thing is that many people fail to be born again believers because they have been taught that they were baptized as a child, or given some sort of ordinance that gave them right standing with God. If someone has, “always been a Christian,” then the Bible is false. God’s Word repeatedly tells us that we must experience a new birth in order to obtain salvation.
Nicodemus was a devout and knowledgeable teacher of the Jews. He knew all of the requirements that seemingly would make a person right with God. Jesus shook his thinking when He told him that he had to be born again (John 3:16).
The question you need to pose for yourself is this: “Have I experienced the new birth?” If you could not honestly know that there was a time when you opened your heart and then invited Jesus to come in and make you His child, then stop what you are doing and do it this very moment!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
