Scene 1

Scene 2

MAN’S PART When can a man declare his Assurance in heaven? FAITH + RECEIVED

GOD’S PART GIVE ASSURANCE SALVATION  – Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:5 Meaning –  Being Free or saved from: Penalty of Sin  – John 3:18, Romans 8:1 (world) Power of Sin  – 1 John 5:19 (heaven) Presence of Sin  – Galatians 3:22-23 (heaven)

Scene 3

Ephesians 2:8-9 8 For it is by grace you have been  saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves,  it is the gift of God—  9 not by works, so that no one can boast. Titus 3:5  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 and  renewal by the Holy Spirit, Meaning – Being Free or saved from:  

Penalty of Sin (world) God has pronounced that the penalty of sin is  spiritual death and separation from God in a place of judgment called  hell: "For the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23). Jesus clearly taught that sinners were  condemned in sin and would perish  and go to hell if they didn't believe  in Him as their Savior (John 3:16-18). 

John 3:18 18 Whoever believes in him is  not condemned, but whoever does not believe  stands condemned already because they have not believed  in the name of God's one and only Son. Romans 8:1  8 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are  in Christ Jesus,   

Scene 4

Power of Sin –(heaven) 1 John 5:19  19 We know that we are children of God,  and that the whole world is  under the control of the evil one.  

Presence of Sin  –(heaven) Galatians 3:22-23 22 But Scripture has locked  up everything under the control of sin,  so that what was promised , being given through faith in Jesus Christ,  might be given to those who believe. Children of God 23 Before the coming of this faith, [a] we were held in custody under the law,  locked up until the faith that was  to come would be revealed.  

Scene 5

ETERNAL LIFE -  Eternal life is  a free gift of God to those who believe in Jesus Christ. Eternal life begins when we put our faith in Jesus. As believers in Christ, eternal life continues  with God after our physical death. Eternal life is the quality of life that results  when we know Jesus Christ by experience,  on a first-hand basis. 1 John 5:12-13 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have  the Son of God does not have life. Concluding Affirmations 13 I write these things to you who believe  in the name of the Son of God so that you may know  that you have eternal life. John 5:24 24 "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and  believes him who sent me has  eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed  over from death to life.   

Scene 6

God's Gift  Romans 6:23 - 23 For the wages of sin is  death, but the gift of God is  eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord. God's Grace Titus 3:7 - 7 so that, having been justified by his grace,  we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. God's Grant 1 John 4:9-10- 9 This is  how God showed his love among us:  He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live  through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved  us and sent his Son as an atoning  sacrifice for our sins. 

Scene 7

BECOME CHRISTIAN  Acts 11:21,26  21 The Lord's hand was with them,  and a great number of people believed  and turned to the Lord. 26 and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year Barnabas and  Saul met with the church and  taught great numbers of people. The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch. Change of Situation  Rev. 3:20 - Christ's Entry in man's heart 20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come  in and eat with that person, and they with me. Change of Position  2 Cor. 5:17- 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,  the new creation has come :[a] The old has gone, the new is here! Change of Direction  Acts 26:18 - 18 to open  their eyes and turn them from darkness to light,  and from the power of Satan to God,  so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and  a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.' 

Scene 8

 CHILDREN OF GOD John 1:12-  12 Yet to all who did receive  him, to those who believed  in his name, he gave the right to become children of God God's Son Gal. 4:4-6 –4 But when the set time had fully come , God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,  5 to redeem those under the law,  that we might receive adoption to sonship.[ b] 6 Because you are his sons,  God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts,  the Spirit who calls out, "Abba,[c] Father." 1 John 3:1-3- See what great love the Father has lavished  on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know  us is that it did not know him. 2 Dear friends, now we are  children of God, and what we will be  has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears ,[a] we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 3 All who have this hope in him purify  themselves, just as he is pure. Rom. 8:14-16 - 14 For those who are  led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. 15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves,  so that you live in fear again;  rather, the Spirit you received  brought about your adoption to sonship. [f] And by him we cry, "Abba,[g] Father." 16 The Spirit himself testifies  with our spirit that we are God's children.    

Scene 9

God's Heirs  Titus 3:7 – 7 so that, having been justified by his grace,  we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. Rom. 8:16-17 - 16 The Spirit himself testifies  with our spirit that we are God's children. 17 Now if we are children,  then we are heirs—heirs of God and  co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share  in his sufferings in order that we may also share  in his glory. God's Citizenship Eph. 2:19- 19 Consequently,  you are no longer foreigners and  strangers, but fellow citizens with God's people and  also members of his household,

RECEIVED THE HOLY SPIRIT  Acts 2:23-23 This man was  handed over to you by God's deliberate plan and  foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, [d] put him to death by nailing him to the cross. Indwelled – Holy Spirit 1 Cor. 6:19 - 19 Do you not know  that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit,  who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; Sealed – Holy Spirit  Eph. 1:13-14 - 13 And you also were  included in Christ when you heard  the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal,  the promised Holy Spirit,  14 who is a deposit guaranteeing  our inheritance until the redemption of those who are  God's possession—to the praise of his glory. 2 Cor. 1:22 – 22 set his seal of ownership on us,  and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit,  guaranteeing what is to come. Controlled – Holy Spirit Romans 8:9 - 9 You, however,  are not in the realm of the flesh but  are in the realm of the Spirit,  if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have  the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. 

Scene 11

JUSTIFIED – "Justice of work of God" Condition – before justified  Rom. 3:9-18 - No One Is Righteous 9 What shall we conclude then? Do we have any advantage? Not at all! For we have already made the charge that Jews and  Gentiles alike are all under the power of sin. 10 As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one; 11     there is no one who understands;     there is no one who seeks God. 12 All have turned away,     they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good,     not even one."[b] 13 "Their throats are open graves;     their tongues practice deceit."[c] "The poison of vipers is on their lips."[d] 14     "Their mouths are  full of cursing and bitterness."[e] 15 "Their feet are swift to shed blood; 16     ruin and misery mark their ways, 17 and the way of peace they do not know."[f] 18     "There is no fear of God before their eyes."[g] 19 Now we know that whatever the law says , it says to those who are  under the law, so that every mouth may be  silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. 20 Therefore no one will be  declared righteous in God's sight by the works of the law;  rather, through the law we become  conscious of our sin.  

Scene 12

Condition – to be justified  Rom. 3:22, 24, 28- 22 This righteousness is given through faith in[ h] Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile,  24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came  by Christ Jesus. 28 For we maintain that a person is  justified by faith apart from the works of the law. Rom. 4:2-3- 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works,  he had something to boast about—but not before God. 3 What does Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and  it was credited to him as righteousness."[a]  Condition – after justified  Rom. 4:7-8 -7 "Blessed are those     whose transgressions are forgiven,     whose sins are covered. 8 Blessed is the one     whose sin the Lord will never count against them."[b] 

Scene 13

REGENERATED – Being new by the Holy Spirit Considered Born Again John 3:1-7 3 Now there was a Pharisee,  a man named Nicodemus who was  a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and  said, "Rabbi, we know that you are  a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing  if God were not with him." 3 Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell  you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are  born again.[a]" 4 "How can someone be born when they are old?" Nicodemus asked. "Surely they cannot enter  a second time into their mother's womb to be born!" 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. 6 Flesh gives  birth to flesh, but the Spirit[b] gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying,  'You[c] must be born again.'  Considered New Creation  2 Cor. 5:17 17 Therefore, if anyone is  in Christ, the new creation has come :[a] The old has gone, the new is here! 

Scene 14

SANCTIFIED – "Being set apart" Holy John 17:17-19 - 17 Sanctify them by[ d] the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world,  I have sent them into the world. 19 For them I sanctify myself,  that they too may be truly sanctified. 1 Cor. 6:11 - 11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were  sanctified, you were justified  in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and  by the Spirit of our God. Saint Heb. 2:14-14 Since the children have  flesh and blood, he too shared  in their humanity so that by his death he might break  the power of him who holds the power of death—that is,  the devil 

Scene 15

GOD DECLARED  Matt. 16:13-19 13 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi,  he asked his disciples,  "Who do people say the Son of Man is?" 14 They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say  Elijah; and still others,  Jeremiah or one of the prophets." 15 "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?" 16 Simon Peter answered,  "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." 17 Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah,  for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood,  but by my Father in heaven. 18 And I tell you that you are  Peter,[b] and on this rock I will build  my church, and the gates of Hades[ c] will not overcome it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven;  whatever you bind on earth will be [d] bound in heaven, and  whatever you loose on earth will be [e] loosed in heaven." 20 Then he ordered his disciples not to tell  anyone that he was the Messiah. Living Stone  1 Pet. 2:4-5  4 As you come to him, the living  Stone—rejected by humans but  chosen by God and precious to him—  5 you also, like living stones, are being built  into a spiritual house[a] to be a holy priesthood,  offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Acts 4:11 11 Jesus is "'the stone you builders rejected,     which has become the cornerstone.'[a]  

Scene 16

Spiritual House  1 Cor. 3:16-16 Don't you know that you yourselves are  God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells  in your midst? 17 If anyone destroys God's temple,  God will destroy that person;  for God's temple is sacred,  and you together are that temple. Temple Heb. 3:6 -  6 But Christ is  faithful as the Son over God's house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold  firmly to our confidence and  the hope in which we glory. Church Eph. 1:21-23 - 21 far above all rule and  authority, power and dominion, and every name that is  invoked, not only in the present age but  also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and  appointed him to be head over everything for the church,  23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills  everything in every way. Key Receiver John 14:6 - 6 Jesus answered , "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 

Scene 17

MAN'S PART BUT FAITH must be proven by DEEDS – James 2:14-17 Proven by: "WORKS" What was the first work God Required? [Mark 16:16] BAPTISM BAPTISM IS NOT: Basis of salvation but PART and inseparable Not to transfer any religion or denomination Not dedication – Luke 2:21-22 BAPTISM IS: Greek work – Baptizo Which means - immersion/"It uslob" Luke 3:21-23 

GOD'S PART Assurance from God Acquired through FAITH...
