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?

00:00:10

This is a question that Jesus received often.

00:00:12

We're going to look at it in Luke and Matthew.

00:00:15

And also, Paul deals with the same type of idea in Romans chapter 2.

00:00:19

Are we going to be examining our good works at the end of our life in order to be saved?

00:00:24

So it's a law gospel confusion passage where there can be some days and confused when reading these.

00:00:30

It can sound like our good works are going to play into our salvation.

00:00:34

So we're going to help bring some clarity on that and walk through those passages together.

00:00:38

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

00:00:52

into that.

00:00:53

We talk about the prosperity gospel, Joelestine.

00:00:55

It's packed.

00:00:56

We hope you enjoy.
