* 8But what saith it? The word is nigh thee,
even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that
is, the word of faith, which we preach;
* 9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth
the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine
heart that God hath raised him from the
dead, thou shalt be saved.
* 10For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.
*
* 11For the scripture saith, Whosoever
believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
* 12For there is no difference between the
Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord
over all is rich unto all that call upon
him.
* 13For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved.
*
*The Bible says that Jesus is fully God
(John 1.1)
*The Bible says that Jesus is fully
human (John 1.14)
*The Bible says that Jesus died for
our sins and rose again from the
dead (1 Cor. 15.3-4)
*
* Salvation: becoming born again (or being made
righteous) by faith does not occur by:
* Feeling guilty
* Telling God everything you have ever done wrong
* Going to church
* Turning from evil ways
* Any work or religious act
* Making Jesus “Lord”
*
*To be saved:
*You have to believe what God says
about Jesus:
* He is God
* He is human
* He died for our sins and rose again
*Then, you must say it out loud.
If you
say what God says you will be saved. At
the moment you say it you become a
new creation (2 Cor. 5.21)
*
*Salvation is totally free.
*Jesus paid the full price.
*All you have to do is agree that He paid the
full price and say you agree He paid the full
price. The moment you do you pass from
death to life, from sin to righteousness and
from shame to glory.

* 6If we say that we have fellowship with him,
and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the
truth:
* 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the
light, we have fellowship one with another, and
the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us
from all sin.
* 8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive
ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
* 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just
to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness.
*
*This verse is written to believers, not unbelievers
(1 John 2.1)
*This is referring to God cleansing our soul – this
can be seen by the fact our spirits are totally
clean.
*The love of God is totally unconditional, but you
will not walk in that love, feel that love or enjoy
that love if you continue to make dark choices.
*To enjoy freedom from sin in your soul, you need
to confess your sin.

*If we confess our sins, he is faithful and
just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse
us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1.5-9)
* Homologia here is in the simple, subjunctive tense.
* Simple – you just need to do it once
* Subjunctive – it is your choice to do it
* If you say what God says about your sins, God will
forgive you and cleanse your mind and your habits
from that sin.
*
* Forgive the Forgiven?
* The Greek word for forgiven (aphieme) is the
same word as the word for to send away or to
leave alone. It is also the word used for
divorce.
* Matt. 4.11, 4.20, 4.22
* Matt. 8.15, 8.22
9If

9If

If we say the same thing God says about our sins
(do not excuse them, but focus on His
redemptive work and the dominion we have over
sin) then God is faithful and righteous to remove
our sins from us, and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness in our soul. (BCT)
