What Must I Do to Be Saved?
March 30, 2022
Summary
Jon and Justin seek to answer the question, "What must I do to be saved?" This is a question that was posed to Jesus at numerous points. The apostles also addressed this question repeatedly. The guys consider two parables from the Lord Jesus: the Good Samaritan and the Rich Young Man; and also a passage from the apostle Paul: Romans 2:6-13. Reformed categories of law and gospel are essential if we are going to rightly understand these passages.

Hi, this is John, and today on Theocast, Justin and I are going to answer this question: what must I do to be saved?
This is a question that Jesus received often.
We're going to look at it in Luke and Matthew.
And also, Paul deals with the same type of idea in Romans chapter 2.
Are we going to be examining our good works at the end of our life in order to be saved?
So it's a law gospel confusion passage where there can be some days and confused when reading these.
It can sound like our good works are going to play into our salvation.
So we're going to help bring some clarity on that and walk through those passages together.
And then on our next podcast, Emperor Framanda, we talk about how good works play into our faith, but they are not a part of our salvation, and how things like federal vision, lordship salvation, final justification kind of play
into that.
We talk about the prosperity gospel, Joelestine.
It's packed.
We hope you enjoy.
