Question: “HOW
MUCH FAITH DO I NEED TO GET SAVED?”
Answer: “NONE, NIL, ZERO, ZILCH, NANA!”
(Part 1 of 2)
No I’m not. If you think you have to have
faith to get saved, how much do you need? Will you be sincere enough?
Will you
just fool yourself? How hard do you have to try?
No it doesn’t! Let me say it again in several
languages: English:
none, nil, zero, zilch, nana, zippidy-do-dah, nought, nothing! French: aucun! German: nichts! Swedish:
ingen! Dutch:
geen! Spanish:
ninguno! Polish:
zaden! Mexican: es
ninguno! Chinese:
mei you! Indonesian: tidak! Hindi:
koi nahin hai! …….. Capisci? That’s Italian for “Do you understand?”
You are correct “…by grace are ye saved through faith…” (Eph 2:8), but finish the verse “… and that NOT OF
YOURSELVES: it is the gift of God…” (Eph 2:8). Your faith cannot save you. The faith that saves you comes
from God.
You asked me “How much faith do I need to get saved?” You need none. All you have to do is “Believe on the Lord Jesus
Christ” like the jailer (Acts
16:31). God then supplies the faith you need.
To BELIEVE something is to be FULLY PERSUADED, like Abraham (Rom 4:21).
Do you believe if you jumped out of a flying airplane, with no parachute, you would hurt yourself?
Do you believe if jumped out of a ninety-story
building you
would damage yourself?
Do you believe if you put your hand on a hot stove you would burn yourself?
You will answer “Yes” to all three because YOUR belief is based on FACTS.
Well here are some more facts, and what is at
stake is your soul will spend eternity.
