If anyone see this is as a simple plan for salvation from God, our lord and savior Jesus Christ has made it simple you must accept him as your lord and savior. You must understand that salvation is not of God works but through faith in Christ Jesus. Salvation is the Mercy of our Lord and Savior.

Well said and true. The only thing is you totally leave out what the book of Acts says about salvation. All of the examples given. It goes beyond just believing. Its how we become forgiven & a new creation. Acts 2:38 says it clearly. “Repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of your sins.” This is different from baby or child baptism. This is by someone old enough to have actually sinned and to realize they need salvation.
If baptism wasn’t required why would some of the very last words of Jesus in Matt. 28:19 be “Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”
And He had the disciples baptizing people while He was with them.
John 3:22 “After this, Jesus and His disciples went out into the Judean countryside, where he spent some time with them, and baptized.”
1 Peter 3:21 says “…and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also…”
Colossians 2:12 “…having been buried with Him through baptism, in which you were also raised with Him through your faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.”
Romans 6:3 “Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?”
Romans 6:4 “We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.”
John 3:5 “Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the spirit.”
1 Corinthians 12:13 “For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body- whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free – we were all given the one Spirit to drink.”
Titus 3:5 “…he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth (Baptism!) and renewal by the Holy Spirit…”
In any case we must not forget Baptism as so many have.

Amen, Amen, and Amen!

This is the clearest, most straight-forward discussion of salvation that I’ve seen. Absolutely the same regardless of color, ethnicity, religious background, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Equity begins with salvation. With the knowledge that God loves everyone so much that he gave his only Son to die for us, for each of us. So when Jesus commands us to love our neighbor as ourself, he means all our neighbors regardless of color, ethnicity, religious background, sexual orientation, or gender identity. After all, if someone is good enough for God’s love, who are we to judge?
