Salvation Summits…
1. I am a mess before Christ.
At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another.
Titus 3:3 (NIV)
2. I am rescued by God.
But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy…so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.
Titus 3:4-5, 7 (NIV)
“If any other man thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more: circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee; concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.”
Philippians 3:4b-6
3. I am washed and renewed by the Holy Spirit.
He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.
Titus 3:5-7 (NIV)
He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit.
Titus 3:5 (NLT)
He gave us a good bath, and we came out of it new people, washed inside and out by the Holy Spirit.
Titus 3:5 (Mess)
