If you could pick just one scripture passage that you felt virtually sums up the message of salvation (what it takes to be saved) which one would it be?

I tend to think it would be St. Matthew 25:31-46… (?)
 
Judith 8:14.,

I have it posted by my computer desk. It keeps me humble enough to realize that God is in charge and knows whats best for us all.👍

😛 OOPS,misread your question a bit,thought you were asking for our favorite quote

Romans 3:21-30
 
Genesis 1:1 - Revelation 22:21

It is a long passage…
…but it pretty much sums it up! 😉
 
**If the world hates you, realize that it hated me first.
19
If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen you out of the world, the world hates you.
20
Remember the word I spoke to you, 8 ‘No slave is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.
21
And they will do all these things to you on account of my name, 9 because they do not know the one who sent me.
22
If I had not come and spoken 10 to them, they would have no sin; but as it is they have no excuse for their sin.
23
Whoever hates me also hates my Father.
24
If I had not done works among them that no one else ever did, they would not have sin; but as it is, they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
25
But in order that the word written in their law 11 might be fulfilled, ‘They hated me without cause.’
26
"When the Advocate comes whom I will send 12 you from the Father, the Spirit of truth that proceeds from the Father, he will testify to me.
27
And you also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
"I have told you this so that you may not fall away.
2
They will expel you from the synagogues; in fact, the hour 1 is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God.
3
They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me.
4
I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you. 2 "I did not tell you this from the beginning, because I was with you.
5
But now I am going to the one who sent me, and not one of you asks me, 3 ‘Where are you going?’
6
But because I told you this, grief has filled your hearts.
7
But I tell you the truth, it is better for you that I go. For if I do not go, the Advocate will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

I’m glad you edited that post! LOL

I was trying to read backward!

I thought maybe there was a secret backward message put in Scripture!
Hahahaha…if you play it backwards it still says Catholics are wrong on justification 😛 LoL
 
Easy.

John 6:35
Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst.

Truer words were never spoken. I have never found Him to fail to live up to these words.

Ex-3:14

“God replied, “I am who am.” Then he added, “This is what you shall tell the Israelites: I AM sent me to you.””
 
**Hello,

If I picked up one verse from the Bible that best suits God’s Last and Final Message, I think it would be:

*“And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord:” *(Mark 12:29)

and this one as well

A law abiding Jew comes to Jesus seeking eternal life or salvation. In the words of the supposed author of the book according to Matthew:

*"And behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments."* (Matthew 19:16-17)

i appreciate this one myself… because i am very hated by many people in my life… (used to be in my life)… and also because it is comforting to know that Jesus was also hated… and therefore, knows how i feel… (how WE feel)… 🙂

no they’re not…

The Catholic Church is not wrong on any dogma… Jesus promised that the Church would fall to Satan…

(Individual Catholics… that’s a different story…)

Interesting. You were asked to quote scripture.
If you could pick just one scripture passage that you felt virtually sums up the message of salvation (what it takes to be saved) which one would it be?
and you quote from a Scripture you claim is corrupt, and leave you Quran behind.
 
no they’re not…

You might want to replay that and edit.

Sorry!! 😃

i usually re-read & edit my posts… don’t know how that got by me…:eek:

I don’t know why i am still laughing… i guess what i wrote just sounds so weird…
 
Post #14 has a typo in it…

i meant to say that Christ promised Satan would NOT overcome the Church…

(that apostacy is not possible with God’s true Church)…
