The First Step: Salvation – Dr. Charles Stanley
The First Step: Salvation – Dr. Charles Stanley
Believing there is a God won’t bring us salvation, nor will good deeds.
In this challenging message, Dr. Stanley tells us we must have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ to be saved. After all, salvation comes from God’s grace. He not only forgives our sins, but He bestows upon us the gift of eternal life.
Dr. Stanley explains that we are living in a world where people’s morals are changing. Many have decided that the Word of God just doesn’t work anymore. But despite this challenge, we must remember this one constant: Jesus’ sacrificial, substitutionary, and sufficient death on the cross paid for our sin debt in full. If we believe that Jesus is the Son of God and we trust Him for our salvation, we will be saved.
Titus 3 KJV
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Happy early Thanksgiving 2024 from Nikiski Alaska ❤
God, Lord, please clean me up. Make me your child! Amen!
You won’t hear the meaning of salvation explained better by anyone else other than Jesus Christ himself. Glory to God.
WHAT ABOUT THE TRUSTING IN THE BLOOD STAINED GOSPEL OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS ,FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF OUR SINS BY FAITH AN GRACE ALONE NO OTHER WAY. . THE BLOOD!!!!!!!!! THE BLOOD!!!!!!! THE BLOOD .!!!!!!! Pauls GOSPEL WAHT DID HE DO ???? HE SHED HIS BLOOD TWO PIECES OF WOOD AND 3 NAILS. ON THE CROSS HE SHED IT ALL IN HEBREWS without the shedding of BLOOD there is no forgiveness of sins. Wrong msg, wrong doctrine , unless he brings in the msg of the blood stained GOSPEL.

A great teacher of God’s word
I usually hate "TV Church sermons"! It never will replace going in person! I don’t care if you have to go underground hiding to meet up secretly as a rendezvous, it’s just not the same! Salvation is the absolute most important thing in the world anybody can ever do! Salvation isn’t a religion, it’s way beyond that! You can’t work your way to God, Jesus, heaven! I have known Charles Stanley to teach straight for decades! I just want to know if I have ever truly put my trust in the Lord without waiver genuinely! This has always been my plague on my mind and heart for so long! I did everything that they say that’s required, but somehow I still don’t believe it! I just don’t see it for myself! I see others getting saved, just not me!

There is No salvation for the gentles nations because they are living in there salvation right now ! They have the whole earth , great wealth that they have passed down to the children. God said through my people fall the whole earth got rich .Christ coming is to restore what the disciples was asking him when will he come and restore the 12 tribes of isreal . John 4:22 makes that abundantly clear who the salvation is for and when Christ made that statement he knew for sure who the real true Jews are . A lot of nations gone be said and confused when they truly see the salvation they thought they had listening to these pastor have deceived them .
A simple prayer will not save you don’t be deceived. Jesus said difficult is the way and few will be saved. If it was just a prayer then Jesus would have said it is easy! Just say a prayer.
But No he said it’s difficult!
Salvation – The work of GOD’s grace by which He pardons us of our sins and bestows upon us the gift of eternal life.
Hallelujah
Brilliant preacher, I strayed a bit in my walk ,Brilliant sermon, the foundation of christ stands firm and when I see the blood I’ll pass over helped me, would like full lordship in my life, we’re all a work in progress
Whats the Gospel?
Believing that Jesus already forgave our sins according to scripture, he was buried, and arose again according to scripture, equals Salvation
2 Corinthians 5:18,19
Ephesians 1:7
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 king james Bible
Have you tried reading and believing the Bible for a change?
In your forgiveness videos you have the same praoblem with the topic of forgivenss. The problem is you have NO CLUE what Jesus accomplished for you on the cross.
Today is the day of SALVATION!
All your sins were forgiven on the cross. Not when you agreed with a prayer.
Read the proof from the king james Bible:
"And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
To wit, that *God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them;* and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation." – 2 Corinthians 5:18-19 KJV
Salvation isnt about getting your sins forgiven, its BELIEVING they already are! Just read what Jesus says through the pen of your apostle Paul:
"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, *how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"* – 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV
THATS THE GOSPEL you need to BELIEVE to be found righteous in Gods eyes.
Just believe the gospel, and heaven is forever your home. Do it not, and you risk everlasting hell.
Your apostle Paul says:
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: *for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;* to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." – Romans 1:16 KJV
God wrote those verses, friend. I didn’t.
Do you BELIEVE them?
Im here for you if you have questions. Please dont wait. None of us are guaranteed a tomorrow.
Also consider Truth Time Radio channel on yt to learn how simple it is to understand your Bible
Grace and peace
If you understand and agree with my first statement give me a thumbs up. That way i can see how many Americans get it.
Forgiven PAST PRESENT FUTURE ❤️
The gospel that is taught by many people today has been reduced down to just "faith alone". This false gospel of "faith alone" has made following the commandments of Christ null and void. Obeying His commandments have been eliminated from the gospel and have been made subsequent and optional to salvation. Walking in the Spirit has been made optional as well. This false gospel of "faith alone" changes what Jesus said in Matthew 7:14 – For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
By teaching that we do NOT need to keep the commandments(plural) of Christ as the gospel, the saving power of the gospel has been neutralized. The end result is that millions of people have been deceived by the devil into thinking that they are saved. They were taught that "faith alone" saved them apart from them having to keep the commandments of Christ. This has become the devil’s masterpiece and has deceived millions of people into thinking they have eternal life in Christ when they actually remain lost.
Salvation is of the Lord
Acts13v48
Acts2v47
Jesus loves you and gave His lofe for you to be reconciled with God and spend eternity with the only true living God
Have Mercy on us Jesus ! Thank you Jesus for dying on the cross for my sins and our sins ! Amen
If you have not as yet been saved by Jesus, consider some of the benefits of Jesus’ shed blood… 1)Precious in value. Acts 20:28 2) In rarity. Only Jesus’ blood was sinless 3) Because it saves. Nothing else does. 4) Under the blood there is no condemnation! 5) It removes your sins completely. 6) It cleanses. Rev. 1:5. 7) It replaces sin with His righteousness. 8) Your sins are in remission, as if you never committed them. Matt 26:28. 9) Release of payment. Your sin debt is paid in full! Ephesians 1:7. Colossians 1:14.
If anybody desires to further look into this matter, the bible teaching youtube channel…. ‘Faith Cometh By Hearing’…. has a fine beginners series on salvation titled, ‘change of mind’. It really helped me understand all the ins and outs of salvation in Jesus.
Amen and Amen!!!
It is 2025 & Dr. Charles Stanley’s messages & sermons are just as relevant today as they were 10 years ago! I watch his sermons almost everyday. I might suggest his book to anyone reading this. That book is : How to Listen to God, I read it in 2017 & sometimes still read it now & then and learn something new. Amen to that, Warren
It is obvious that God loves Man and wants his salvation. But it was man who sinned, not God. It is normal to think that the person who should take a significant step to repair this error is the man despite the cross of Christ. Otherwise, Man will not feel worthy of entering Paradise again.
The narrative of salvation made only around the cross of Christ is incomplete and is not enought. But someone will say:«But we do not know anything else!» Of course you don´t!
Thankyou God Lord for giving me a new beginning in life ❤
CHARLES STANLEY WHY ARE YOU NOT PREACHING : TRUST IN THE BLOOD ATONEMENT OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS , DEATH ,BURIEL, RESURRECTION BY FAITH ALONE . THROUGH GRACE ALONE , NO WORKS , NO SINNERS PRAYER . YOU HAVE TO TRUST IN THE BLOOD TO SAVE . JESUS BUILT A BRIDGE TO HEAVEN BY TWO PIECES OF WOOD AND 3 NAILS . PREACH THE BLOOD STAINED GOSPEL. BY ROBERT BREAKER
Amén. Yet the truth is we don’t even take a first step. BEHOLD HE LOVED US FIRST HE CHOSE US NOT WE HIM. ALL GLORY TO YESHUA MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST MY Lord and God John 2028. Amen. Shalom. Peace. ASALAM malaikum. Paz. We pray for peace. Lord Jesus help us
Uh, guys, the idea of the need for salvation is first to make you feel guilty in the eyes of God, then they teach you not to worry cuz someone else died for your sins but only if you repent. So, you spend the rest of your life feeling guilty letting sombody else die for you when you know you deserve the punishment. The only way to avoid this deserved punishment is to atone for your sin by an act of restitution or some form of repayment. If you killed a parent of a helpless, dependent child, you must replace the parent ‘s role and become its nurturer and provider. That’s how your sens
Thank you jesus❤
My Family Misses You ! Thank the Lord We Will See You In Heaven!
Is everyone saved?
NO.
Only those who OBEY Christ, will be saved.
HEBREWS 5:9
(King James Bible)
"And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;"
Who else misses this man of God? I do!
Blood stained Gospel vs the bloodless gospel most pastors preach today. Not the gospel. Of salvation.
Thank you Jesus for Your Word, heal our heart and us walk in Your Word and Way, God bless you all
