SALVATION – HOW? – Assembly of Yahweh

Sin

1. Why do we have such pollution, sickness, accidents, death in war, adultery, poisonous spraying to prevent wormy fruit, deformed babies, and loss of respect, etc.? Deuteronomy 28:15. Read the rest of this chapter to see the curses.

2. How can we receive blessings instead of curses? Deuteronomy 28:1-2, Exodus 15:26. Read of blessings in Deuteronomy 28:3-14, Leviticus 26:1-13.

3. In our curses of pollution and bombs, etc., will man bring about complete destruction of life on the earth? Matthew 24:22.

4. What is the name for disobedience to Yahweh’s law? 1 John 3:4.

5. How many of us have sinned (broken Yahweh’s law)? Romans 3:23, Isaiah 53:6, Ecclesiastes 7:20.

6. What is the end result of sin? Romans 6:23.

7. Is there a hope (for all of us) to be saved from eternal death? What must be done? 2 Peter 3:9, Luke 13:3, Acts 17:24-30. The word “perish” in 2 Peter 3:9 is translated from the same Greek word as “lost” in John 17:12; the meaning is: to destroy fully (See Strong’s Concordance).

Note: We see that man suffers because of disobeying Yahweh’s law. Transgression of the law is called sin. All have sinned. Sin brings death. No one need perish forever if he repents.

Repentance

1. How many (comparatively) will repent, and be saved from eternal death? Matthew 7:14.

2. What is one thing Yahshua did; and with what kind of people? Matthew 9:13.

3. What does a person become at the time of repentance? Acts 3:19. See Strong’s Concordance or a dictionary for the meaning of “converted.” What is another descriptive word for these people? Revelation 2:7, 17, 26; 3:5, 12; 21:7. What do they overcome?

4. What leads us to repentance? Romans 2:4.

5. What is the great law (main set of rules) that Yahshua shows are being kept by those that inherit eternal life? Matthew 19:16-19. Paul also indicates this law in Romans 7:7. You may read all these Ten Commandments in Exodus, chapter 20.

6. If we repent and begin to obey Yahweh, may we repeatedly, willfully, return to sin and again repent? Hebrews 6:1-6, 10:26; Luke 9:62.

7. What else is a repented sinner to do? Acts 2:38, Romans 6.

Note: A repentant person realizes that he has sinned against the Almighty Creator of the universe. He is sorry for his sins. He repents (thinks differently) and desires to (indeed, begins to) obey his supreme heavenly Father, Yahweh.

Baptism

1. Why are we to be baptized? Acts 2:38, John 3:5. Baptize means to make whelmed, wholly cover with a fluid, immerse.

2. Was Yahshua baptized? Matthew 3:13-16. Are we to follow His example? 1 Peter 2:21.

3. In what name are we to be baptized? Acts 2:38, 19:5; Matthew 28:19. The name is “Yahshua.” He is messiah, master, son, savior, lamb, etc; but His name is “Yahshua…”

4. How many names are there whereby we must be saved? Acts 4:10-12. Into whom are we baptized? Romans 6:3.

5. Does our burial in water represent another burial? Romans 6:3-5, Colossians 2:12.

6. What part of us is to remain buried (destroyed)? Romans 6:6, 11; Colossians 3:9.

7. Yahshua was raised to a new life. Should we also? Romans 6:4; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 6:15; Ephesians 4:22-24; Colossians 3:10; 1 Peter 4:1-3.

Note: Romans 6:4: Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as the Messiah was raised up from the dead by the majesty of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Love and The Commandments

1. What are the Ten Commandments? Exodus 20:3-17.

2. Did Yahshua come to abolish the law? Matthew 5:16-20. In fact, He magnified the law. Verses 21-22, 27-28.

3. What did Yahshua tell the man to do if he would have eternal life? Matthew 19:16-19. Who have right to the tree of life? Revelation 22:14.

4. Are the Commandments grievous, or are they a royal law of love and liberty? 1 John 5:3; James 2:8; John 14:15; 1 John 2:3-5; 2 John 6: James 1:25, 2:12.

5. Whom did Yahshua say to love? Matthew 22:37-39. What is yet hanging on these two laws? Verse 40. Does Yahweh also love us? John 3:16.

6. What must we do so we will not believe lies, and perish? 2 Thess. 2:10-11.

7. What helps us obey Yahweh, and keep His Commandments? John 14:16-17, 26; 1 John 4:13; John 15:26, 16:13; 1 John 2:27.

Note: Keeping the first four of the Ten Commandments, specially shows our love for Yahweh. Keeping the last six of the Ten Commandments, specially shows our love for our fellow man. This is in perfect agreement with what Yahshua said in Matthew 22:37-40. The word “iniquity” means “violation of law” in Matthew 7:23, 13:41, 23:28, 24:12; Romans 6:19; 2 Thessalonians 2:7; Titus 2:14; Hebrews 1:9.
