How to Be Saved by Love Foundation Christian Center
Teacher: David Marvin. Welcome, CityBridge Family! This morning, David Marvin is guiding us through 1 Timothy 2:1-7, where Paul urges the church to prioritize prayer—lifting up all people, including those in authority—because God desires everyone to come to know Him. He reminds us that Jesus is the one mediator between God and humanity, the ransom given for all. Through this passage, we see that prayer isn't just a religious practice; it's a powerful, God-given responsibility. To help you reflect and apply this truth, we've provided a weekly reading plan with discussion questions. You can find it on the CityBridge App to follow along! Enjoyed the message?

Mylon & Christi Le Fevre in Los Angeles, CA teach what it truly means to BE SAVED.
Today as we continue in our study of the book of Acts we look at a passage that is both encouraging for its simplicity but also confusing because of how some have interpreted it throughout history. We'll get to all of that in just a second, but first let's take a look at the question that it will help us to answer in our study today: Q. Do You Have to Get Baptized to Be Saved?--The PursueGOD Truth podcast is the “easy button” for making disciples – whether you're looking for resources to lead a family devotional, a small group at church, or a one-on-one mentoring relationship. Join us for new episodes every Tuesday and Friday. Find resources to talk about these episodes at pursueGOD.org.Help others go "full circle" as a follower of Jesus through our 12-week Pursuit series.Click here to learn more about how to use these resources at home, with a small group, or in a one-on-one discipleship relationship.Got questions or want to leave a note? Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now --In simplest terms there are two sides to this debate:some people say that yes, baptism in water is required for salvation.One of their key verses comes from our text today.other people say no, baptism is not required for salvation. Full disclosure, I am squarely on the side of the “No's”. I believe the Bible is very clear in teaching that we are saved by faith, and baptism is something that we do after we are saved. we do it out of obedience to Christ's commands, just like we obey in a thousand other ways. God does not wait to save us until after we are baptized; that goes against the clear teachings of scripture. I'll show you those teachings today.Before we get to that, you might be asking why it even matters?Is this just a side issue, something that everyone can simply decide about for themselves and we don't really need to fight over it? Like pre-trib versus post-trib or wine versus juice I believe it is a fundamental issue that everyone needs to wrestle with. If you get this wrong, you might be getting salvation wrong! that's a big deal, so let's not take this question lightly. If baptism is required for salvation, I would want to know it. I would not want to teach the wrong gospel or lead people astray. I spent 4 hours watching a debate on this. (See Bible Thinker for more.) I seriously listened to it with a willingness to change my mind if the Bible made it clear that baptism is a requirement for salvation. but at the end of the video, I was more convinced than ever that my viewpoint really is the more biblical one. So wherever you stand on this issue, whether you've thought about it a lot or are just now learning about it, I invite you to let God's word speak for itself and make your own decision about whether you have to get baptized to be saved. let's get into this For the last 2 weeks we've been studying Peter's first ever sermon preached in the church age. it was a two-part sermon where he first started with teaching about the Holy Spirit and then he finished a teaching about the basic gospel message, which is all about Jesus and his death and Resurrection. it must have been a great sermon because as we continue to read the text for today, we can see that it had a great impact… Acts 2:37 (NLT) 37 Peter's words pierced their hearts, and they said to...

Imagine grasping the essence of salvation with the clarity of a sunrise banishing the night's shadows. That's the promise of our deep dive into Isaiah 45:22's potent call for redemption. Our latest episode, "Look Unto Me and Be Saved," dissects this biblical verse, which presents God's sovereignty as the exclusive source of salvation. Together, we navigate theological mazes to reclaim foundational spiritual truths. We confront the all-too-human tendency to seek answers within ourselves or in rituals, affirming that the simple act of looking to Christ with genuine faith unravels the complexities of salvation.With special guest theologians providing insightful commentary, we expand on the universal nature of God's invitation. It's a revelation that transcends borders and ethnicities, inviting individuals from every corner of the globe to embrace grace. "Look Unto Me and Be Saved" is not just a call to acknowledge our sins and accept Christ's atoning sacrifice—it's a reminder that our past misdeeds don't define our potential for salvation. We clarify that good deeds, though they follow the act of salvation, are not the currency to purchase it but rather the natural fruit of a transformed life.In our exploration, we also tackle the enduring truth of God's Word against the backdrop of fading worldly ideologies. We examine the exclusivity of the Bible's claim to the path of salvation, challenging the notion that salvation could be found through any other religious text or teaching. This episode is not just another sermon; it's a heartfelt invitation to rediscover the Gospel's unique hope and the one true God's call to find peace in His embrace. Join us in this enlightening journey that promises to fortify your understanding of salvation's simplicity and the unshakable nature of God's love.Support the show

Psalm 88 A Petition to Be Saved from Death. A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. For the choir director; according to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite. 88 O Lord, the God of my salvation,I have cried out by day and in the night before You.2 Let my prayer come before You;Incline Your ear to my cry!3 For my soul has had enough troubles,And my life has drawn near to Sheol.4 I am reckoned among those who go down to the pit;I have become like a man without strength,5 Forsaken among the dead,Like the slain who lie in the grave,Whom You remember no more,And they are cut off from Your hand.6 You have put me in the lowest pit,In dark places, in the depths.7 Your wrath has rested upon me,And You have afflicted me with all Your waves. Selah.8 You have removed my acquaintances far from me;You have made me an object of loathing to them;I am shut up and cannot go out.9 My eye has wasted away because of affliction;I have called upon You every day, O Lord;I have spread out my hands to You. 10 Will You perform wonders for the dead?Will the departed spirits rise and praise You? Selah.11 Will Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave,Your faithfulness in Abaddon?12 Will Your wonders be made known in the darkness?And Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? 13 But I, O Lord, have cried out to You for help,And in the morning my prayer comes before You.14 O Lord, why do You reject my soul?Why do You hide Your face from me?15 I was afflicted and about to die from my youth on;I suffer Your terrors; I am overcome.16 Your burning anger has passed over me;Your terrors have destroyed me.17 They have surrounded me like water all day long;They have encompassed me altogether.18 You have removed lover and friend far from me;My acquaintances are in darkness.

A Ben double feature! First, author Ben Fountain (Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk) joins Daniel Ford on the show to chat about his latest novel Devil Makes Three. Then, Ben Purkert talks with Daniel about his debut novel The Men Can't Be Saved. To learn more about Ben Fountain, visit his official website. Learn more about Ben Purkert by visiting his official website. Writer's Bone is proudly sponsored by Libro.fm and Mark Cecil's upcoming novel Bunyan and Henry; Or, the Beautiful Destiny.
Ben Purkert's novel, The Men Can't Be Saved, follows a junior copywriter with a viral tagline for adult diapers. Is it a modern take on Mad Men? Or its very antithesis? Purkert tells NPR's Sacha Pfeiffer how his own days in the advertising industry – at the same time the TV drama starring Jon Hamm had just premiered – shaped his understanding of ego, drive and manhood in the workplace....and how maybe making partner at a firm is more about finding connection than a fancy title, though his protagonist would never admit it out loud.
Adrienne Su joins Kevin Young to read “The Longing to Be Saved,” by Maxine Kumin, and her own poem “The Days.” Su is a professor and Poet-in-Residence at Dickinson College, whose work has been recognized by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Pushcart Prize, and the Money for Women/Barbara Deming Memorial Fund.
This week's guest Ben Purkert, author of the newly released novel, The Men Can't Be Saved, gives us some insight into the art of writing complex characters, including the downright unlikeable ones. Atrocious acts and bad behavior are at the center of storytelling, and when constructed well, supposedly unlikeable characters are often more gripping and memorable than likable ones. We're titillated and drawn forth by a character's conflict, bad behavior, and perhaps even downfall. A good author challenges their readers to be interested in their unlikeable characters—even through their flaws. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
